It should have given you the opportunity to remove them,were they displayed in red and did you tick to remove them?

To be honest Spybot is not so widely reccomended any more as its getting a bit dated,a much better application is this one here http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebyte...-10896905.html update it before running a scan if you decide to use it ...it is widely used by members of this site and also reccomended by all the spyware helpers here ..........

I'm sure you're referring to the lines that run across the bottom when doing a scan. These are things Spybot is searching for from its database, not what is being detected. If they were being detected that would be indicated at the end of the scan.

Hi Suprsiz3_ls1

I know Karen has answered you-

SpyBot Search and Destroy "looks for" several hundred thousand variants of malware.... you have some more typing to do, by the looks of this list

(If you start tonite I'm sure you can finish by New Year's...... )
