I got two spyware/popup/sh*tbuckets running as processes on my
PC. MS Spyware and Adaware won't detect them, I can't manually
delete them because they are running processes, and when I ctrl+alt+del
to end them they come straight back on! How do I shut them down so I can delete them? I know theres some easy way I just can't remember! Thanks for any help, These viagra adverts that keep popping up are annoying me! |

I had a virus that may be similar to this. Launch task manager kill Explorer and see if it is then possible to delete them. Spybot search and destroy can scan on login to remove stuff before it starts.  |
