I have several spyware toolbars on my browser and I can't get them off
These include Yahoocompanion viewpoint toolbar and other stuff in my favorites. How do I get them out

Hi Sambam,

If you are comfortable navigating and sorting your registry, you can remove them from their. Before attempting this; please backup same. I don't know if they show in Add/Remove programs; if they do, kick them out that way, although it can almost be guaranteed that there will be traces left behind.

Easiest thing to do is have you submit us a HiJack This log. Please follow these instructions carefully, then proceed as follows:

First off, please read these messages

Virus=Read This: http://www.computercops.biz/postt8864.html
HiJack= Read This: http://www.computercops.biz/postt911.html

Then
Download: HiJack This!

Create and Unzip to a folder not your Desktop or the Temp folder, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and press "Scan".
Unzip the download (using a piece of software like: Winzip)

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log in a text file, and post it in the CCSP "Spyware - Hijack Related" forum:

http://computercops.biz/forum67.html

Most of what it lists will be harmless or even required, so do NOT fix anything yet.
Someone here will be happy to help you analyze the results.

*Please, be patient. An expert will examine your log and this does take time. Please, no 'Bumps' and no 'Dupes'. Thank you.*
