C:\spad\start.html in hell

Hi, I am in the middle of part three. I have updated and ran my spybot, and have run highjack this. Here are the postings. Caveat: I have run highjack and shredder before, which sometimes has reverted by browser back to the original. Then, after one or two clicks it would revert to the spad one. I have repeatedly deleted the "myex" or "spad" files listed in the highjack log.

I want to mention two humorus things:
First, I had just gone to Microsoft's update page about a week before this happened and retrieved all the updates. Then, this occured--too funny.

Second, since this highjacker allows me to access the Internet, I am tempted to leave it there, so other "evildoers" cannot take it over, the ones that limit where I can go. Still, I would rather not have to face this particular webpage every time I choose to work on-line.

By the way, it is good to know that for every foul highjacker out there, that there are people willing to help us naive innocents fend off the forces of darkness. Many thanks to whomever can help.

Bob
