I'm talking about where I can talk about spyware besides posting a HJT log. I can't seem to find them. The ones I find, if I post a question, it never gets answered.

Who is your ISP? If comcast there are two very knowledgeable people (Cajuntek and JohnD) on the help forums. Usually very quick to answer.

Well I fix computers for a living and most times I can get by. Even Aurora isn't as bad as this infection I have been trying to remove for the past three days. IBIS just keeps coming back no matter what I do. MSAS keeps catching something trying to lower the internet zone security settings. It's driving me B-A-N-A-N-A-S!

...wow sounds like you're having a lot of spyware problems...

At this point personally I'd just back up my important files and reformat, saves a lot of trouble. And cut back on the pr0n and warez ;)

Also what is there really besides posting a HJT log if you have used AS programs. Have you looked at Schadenfro's(sp?) site. Lot of good info there.
Do you have a specific question?
If so "wrong forum b!tch". :)

There is also a spyware forum that is good where only proven members are allowed to answer but I can't remember the name. :(

Try the spywareinfo forums

This is not my computer. I finally went ahead and formatted and installed Windows again however I would really like to know how to fix it without having to format/reinstall if it is at all possible. The Hijack This log was clean. The thing is, there were like five user accounts on that computer and each one had problems. I wonder if I have to go into one, run all possible spyware programs, reboot. Go into the next one, run all possible spyware programs, reboot, etc. I ran MS AntiSpyware, AdAware, Spybot and I also used Spyware Doctor.

I see a few hits on Google. Don't know if they work.
