    Hello when I download Spyware Blaster I get an error after installing it. The error states, "This program has been damaged, possibly by a bad sector of the hard drive or a virus, Please reinstall it."

    I have reinstalled it several times and get the same error.

    I have been in the process of cleaning the computer of adware and viruses. I beleive I have them gone but I am really not sure.

    Could someone tell me where I go from here.
    Below is a HiJack This list. I used Spybot Search and Destroy before running HiJackthis. Thanks

    Take a look at this post (and the rest of that thread and the related linked materials).

    https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?p=207703

    This was a big problem for SpywareBlaster 3.1, and it was almost always a sign of a prior CWS spyware infection. The solution that worked for many people was described in the thread above. That being using Ad-aware (fully updated!) to scan and clean in-depth, and then running the special cleaner program that was referenced from the German website listed. (The program is in English, so don't worry about the German page it is downloaded from.)

    The combination of the two, the full Ad-aware cleanup followed immediately by running the special cleaner, worked for many people.

    Unfortunately, we no longer analyze HijackThis logs here for general spyware cleaning, though it might not be needed or helpful anyway, if you try the above and it succeeds.

    If it does not, then there are plenty of security websites that can help review your log. They are listed in a link from this announcement:
