Spyware...need help...

[Stormtropper]

Some god damn russian (I know for sure it was a russian) installed quite alot of shit on my computer, I was able to get rid of most of it. (There was an intreasting one 'powersearch,'  it allows me to find Russian porn sites...)

but there is this one spyware msxct.exe that is still on my computer, but I have it done in a way that it just never starts on my computer, but because of that, none of my anti spyware programs will pick it up and get rid of it.

Do you guys have any ideas on how to get rid of that sucker?

Hi Jeff!

1) Are you sure that it's spyware?

2) If it is, then you can most probably delete it manually via Safe Mode - thank God for Safe Mode!  ;D

Hope this helps!

I did a quick google, and it seems to be a spyware, but I don't know all the file locations or anything like that....right now, its under control, and I don't want to mess with anything unless i'm sure its gonna get rid of it...

...I just don't want to reactivate it and have it destroy my computer

It'll most probs be in your Windows\System32 folder - or just do a quick search on your HDD. Then delete it. GET RID OF SPYWARE!!  :)
