Having trouble getting rid of spyware?

My computer is infected with spyware, and it will not allow me to open my antispyware program. I downloaded a free antispyware program called superantispyware and it too will not open. so i downloaded an antivirus AVG. it wouldnt open. then i got Ad-Aware. it opens, but when i run a scan my pc will just turn off randomly in the middle of the scan.

before doing the adaware scan i uninstalled the avg. i also tried system restore, but it says i have no restore points. i have used system restore a few times before so im not sure if maybe the spyware messed that up too.

i dont know what to do. please help!

Use Avast or NOd32
sTART your compter in "safe mode"

by tapping "F8" on start up (start tapping from first black screen)

then run you scans
Hello ,

Try full system scans in "Safe Mode"

I would simply perform a Complete System Restore .....
Run your anti-spyware in Safe Mode.If you dont have an excellent anti-spyware or your current anti-spyware can't prevent spyware from Invading you computer,download a better one.

There are top 5 anti-spywares reviews,comparisons and download links on

http://www.anti-spyware-center.com

You can download and scan your computer for free.

As the computer is booting press your "F8 Key" repeatly which should bring up the "Windows Advanced Options Menu" . Use your arrow keys to move to "Safe Mode" and press your Enter key.

After into safe mode,run an anti-spyware to remove the spyware and adware on you computer.

Make sure you have 1 or 2 antispyware on your computer and 1 antivirus and also 1 firewall.

GOOD LUCK!

How can i remove the adware.istbar ?live update

There is a entry in Add/Remove Programs for 'MS AUpdate' (AUpdate variant) or 'ISTbar' (ISTbar variant). Unfortunately this doesn't remove the toolbar in the AUpdate variant, or RapidBlaster in either variant.
The removal tool can be found here:

Anyone have any tips for removing a Bloodhound.(whatever goes here, not sure what it was) virus?

This type of virus isn't just a low security risk, it is a very high security risk, annoys you, and frustrates and tries to wreck your computer. Right now, none of my stupid antivirus programs are detecting it. Downloaded and tried Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool. Didn't detect anything. But I KNOW there is someone trying to hack my computer right now. The Bloodhound. virus is like a gateway for a hacker. It turned my firewall of, i fixed that, destroyed NIS 2007 (I have it again now, I just downloaded a trial version :( ). It disabled Windows Defender, I can't turn that on again for some reason, and the stupid virus slows my computer down. Any step-by-step guides would be nice. I really need help!!!!!!!! BTW, I have Windows Vista, Basic Edition

Blood hound is a spyware not a virus. Most spyware is installed via cookies, java code and social networking. Tagging and bookmarket are a new tool for hackers to produce spyware. There is a consensus from about every major PC magazine that 98% of anti-spyware programs are worthless. They cant keep up with the onslaught of the billion dollar spam and spyware industry.

However, some signature based anti- spyware and keylogger blockers have a track record of blocking almost a %100 of the spyware on the market. The #1 is Webroot's Spysweeper. This company updates the signatures daily and blacklist IPs, scripts and codes that are known spyware. Its the best protection outside a security suite. But most people want freeware. So you get what you pay for and loose out on security.

Do anti-virus software companies develop virus'?

When you download a "trial" version of antivirus software are you putting yourself at risk? Are they purposely installing virus' on your computer so you, as a concerned and unaware "customer", buy their software in good faith. While they exploit the very cause that they so eagerly fight for?

Do anti-virus software companies develop virus'?hijackthis

This is entirely possible, but in reality is not very likely.. Any company that did this would be very quickly caught out by security experts at competitors (the antivirus software industry is VERY competitive).

Not to mention the fact that many of the companies that release antivirus software have extremely high reputations in virus research, such as symantec and kaspersky.

However, if you download an antivirus program from a crappy website from a no-name developer, you may be putting yourself at risk. Stick to the established names if you want to keep your system safe!

Do anti-virus software companies develop virus'?malware

Ive often wondered this myself

Or maybe when you install their trial version, they just program it to "find" fake viruses or spyware and want you to pay to remove them....even though theyre fake

We'll never know.
My guess is yes , but we dont have anything to prove it. :(
according to my knowledge .. most of them wont do that ..

Keylogger coming up as virus?

i have Avast antivirus, and i tried downloading a keylogger, but every time i do, it says its a virus and tells me to delete it. Im fairly sure its from a respectable company, and from a good site, but i have been told that some keyloggers can work like viruses, so are considered to be as such, and can set off the virus software. is this true, do you think it will be ok?

Keylogger coming up as virus?house call

The only keylogger i know that cannot be found with any antivirus is KeyProwler.

KeyProwler is undetectable by All Major anti viruses and Spyware. KeyProwler is the one i use it has Award Winning Email and Phone Tech support.

I like KeyProwler a lot because it is very simple to use and not overly complicated like the other keylogging software.

here is the address : http://www.keyprowler.com

Keylogger coming up as virus?matchless

Try All In One Keylogger from here:

http://www.relytec.com
just about any keylogger will be seen as a virus by anti-virus software.

keyloggers can be remotely installed on systems and hidden so users do not know they are there. So AV software will check for them.
For the most part, yes a keylogger would trigger your anti-virus to go off. Just in case, make sure the keylogger you are going to run is from a trusted source.

Unable to connect digital camera to my laptop.?

I am using HP Pavillion dv6000 laptop which came with Windows XP Home edition. Further I am using Yashica (Kyocera) EZ6031 digital camera. Earlier I used to have no problem in plugging and downloading snaps taken from this camera. However today while using it got connected for the first time, then Symantec Antivirus deducted couple of viruses (Trojan Horse %26 W32.Imaut.AY) - both of which were duly quarantined or deleted.

Afterwards, my laptop fails to detect the digital camera. Any solution??

I hope your digital camera driver didn't get infected and get quarantined.

I would suggest installing your digital camera driver on your system again + restart + plugin your digital camera.
