    Ive thrown every spyware scanner possible at the virus.. and nod32 recognises it. But after the reboot it comes back under a different dll file.
    Anyone know the main dll culprit for this one? or a quick way to get rid of it
    Ive ran adaware/hijackthis/spybot with no success.. Adaware picks it up each time its rebooted but unsuccessful it removing it completely.

    You should have contacted us in the first place, it was important for us to locate the file causing the dll re-appear each time. Otherwise it's possible that the same problem may emerge again in the future.

    Thanks for letting us know.

    By the way, was NOD32 placed on an already infected computer?

    Cheers :D
