First thing I tried after Ad-aware and Spybot, no go :-( In some cases, the only way out of it is HiJackthis (http://www.spychecker.com/program/hijackthis.html) which unfortunately requires a somehow skilled tech and lots of time, with no guarantee. I ruled it out for financial reasons: eventually a skilled tech will indeed be able to clean the machine, but the bottom line is not favorable in a mid-size or large corporate environment: it takes a lot less time and money to send a grease monkey reload the machine and send L2 tech to put back user settings. Not elegant nor smart, but works. Michel.
