View Full Version : Can't run SpywareBlaster

Everytime I install SpywareBlaster and try to run it, I get this error:

This program has been damaged, possibly by a bad sector of the hard drive or a virus. Please reinstall it.

I've tried downloading it from different sites and still the same problem.
I have Norton Anti-Virus, Ad-aware, Spybot, CWShredder and SpywareGuard running on my computer. I've had some nasty Spyware programs on my computer (CoolWebSearch) in the last couple of days, but I believe I've gotten rid of all of it.

So is there actually a virus on my computer that won't let me run it, or am I missing files or is this a bug? Any help will be greatly appreciated

Hi The Duke. :)

It is related to your CWS infection.

Here is an extensive thread on the subject,
