Subject: RE: Tech: Spyware eliminating programs
spybot works great BUT not if you don't know what it is safe to have it eliminate or not! I got long lists of registry keys and other stuff; had not idea and didn't want to do a process of elmination. I finally uninstalled it and rely on AdAware.

However, I have a nasty bit of spyware still on which resets my homepage every time I close my browser. Also, NOW, when I close my browser, the next time i open it, my content advisor is enables and I cannot disable it without resetting all of its settings. Used to be I could just hit Disable and it would do so. This happened after Rog took my harddrive in to work and they tried a couple of tricks to get the spyware off.AAAArrrggghhhh!

Will now go check out WinPatrol.Thanks, W.E. and guys!
