WinTools

[Andy]

Is there an easy way to get rid of WinTools/HuntBar? I
have/am using Spybot S&D, Ad-Aware, Spyware Blaster, and
now Microsoft AntiSpyware but this persistent bugger
won't give up!

I have entered "Safe Mode" on XP sp1 under administrator
then I have then deleted these 3 keys from the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersi
on\Run\Wintools (There was no TB_setup or TBS entry found)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer\Bro
wser Helper Objects\{87766247-311C-43B4-8499-3D5FEC94A183}

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinTo
olsSvc

I scan again and and am clean. Then I reboot normally and
am alerted that Wintools is trying to install. I stop the
installation of WinTools, scan with Microsoft AtiSpyware
and find and remove HuntBar.

I am trying to get clean to install XP sp2 without having
to reformat my drive. Any Suggestions?

Thank you
