TopText Installer?

[NeWcS]

Every 20 min or so an Icon pops up in my System Tray

Ive done everything Ive read on the web about removing toptext but I dont think its installed, Its just trying to install. How can I get rid of this?

SpywareBlaster 3.4 http://majorgeeks.com/download2859.html
SpyBot V1.4 http://www.majorgeeks.com/download2471.html
AdAware SE 1.06 http://www.majorgeeks.com/download506.html
MS AntiSpy - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...A8BD-DBF62EDA9671&displaylang=en&Hash=RDXMHB6 (XP and W2K only)

DL them (they are free), install them, check each for their
definition updates and then run AdAware and Spybot, fixing anything
they say.

In SpywareBlaster - Always enable all protection after updates
In SpyBot - After an update run immunize

Do these and reboot before the next step.

Then get HiJack This V1.99.1 http://thespykiller.co.uk/files/hijackthis_sfx.exe - double click the DL file and click unzip letting it extract to its default folder C:\Program FIles\HiJackThis, run it from there, DO NOT fix anything, post the log here.

I don't see SpyBot - did you get AdAware

I did get both and ran them and fixed the problems it found. When I go into %temp% it keeps telling me that some of the files are in use by another person or program(Im not on a network). Should I do it in safemode? Also do I want to make sure one of the programs you had me d/l is always running in the back grd?

Thank you so much for the help.

Also, Im not sure I should delete

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [StatBar] C:\Program Files\Globe Software\StatBar\StatBar.exe

This is a program I ran and know its safe.

Some temps won't go

This is wht I put that entry in there

http://castlecops.com/s3531-STATBAR_exe.html

Is it fixed???

 

[NeWcS]

I think it is fixed. Ive been on for an hour and havn't seen that icon popup in the systray. Thank you so much for the help!!!

Also, Should I have any of those programs you had me d/l running in the back grd or are they just good for checking?


-Jay

 

[MFDnNC]

AA is for checking

SpyBot is in the BkGRND

SPyware Blaster is in the deep background

MS Anti is a mix

Thank you for the help A++
