Run Hijackthis. Copy the log and paste it into one of the automated hijackthis analyzers. Follow the instructions to remove suspected malware. Use more than one analyzer site, they don't all detect the same things.

Run Windows Defender. If you don't have it already, get it from Microsoft.

After you do this, try a free online scan such as Panda.

Consider trying SuperAntiSpyware.

the best way to firmly delete a program is to click on "run"
then type:cmd.exe, then type "format C:" you then will have no more issues with THAT program.

BTW that CA antivirus is the worst one on the market IMO.

No, the worst one on the market is McAfee, but CA is a very close second.

IMO, the worst offender is Norton, what a resource hog!
Now they're reduced to pimping it on TV for $15.

2009 Norton Version is supposed to be better Matt, has gotten good reviews.

They needed to do something. I ran Symantec till 2005 when I realized that even though the update process said everything was peachy, I checked the version number and it hadn't updated the definitions in three month. The damn thing left me vulnerable for three months and didn't give me any indication till I went in and checked manually. Support was useless, they could barely speak English much less help me with my issue, totally clueless. I'll never buy another one of their products.

Yep. The new Norton 2009 is not your father's Norton Utilities. I, as well as every professional reviewer that I've come across so far, highly recommend you giving it a try. Small, fast, lite, and damn good at what it does.
