remote password stealer help

Hello....I'm a newbie here with a question:

I recently discovered that my girlfriend has been checking my emails on AOL for over 7 months. She claims to have guessed my password 2x. A few days ago I received a pop up message on the screen that said:

(cannot find hook file, maybe you need reinstall remote password stealer)

I cannot get it to stop popping up nor can I find where this came from? I know there is a program called "Remote password stealer" that can be purchased online.

The program as you know is designed to hide itself as well as email my passwords out everytime I enter or change them. How do I find out if it is gone or uninstalled....how do I get rid of it? I have AntiVir Guard, Spybot - search & destroy.

What else can I do to be sure it's gone?

Thank you for any help and sorry if this was the wrong topic forum for this post?

Have you tried scanning with any AV's or Anti-Trojans?
I would recommend doing a full system scan with Ewido or A2.

Have you checked your Add/Remove programs to see if anything suspicious is listed there? Or go to C:\Program Files and see if anything suspsicious shows up there.

 

Along with the excellent programs already mentioned by Capp you can download Trojan Hunter http://www.trojanhunter.com for a 30 day free trial. It should be helpful if the other programs don't find anything.

Some other good free scanners that are available and you may find helpful are X-Cleaner (free) http://www.xblock.com/download-freeware.shtml

Microsoft Anti-spyware (free) http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...A2-6A57-4C57-A8BD-DBF62EDA9671&displaylang=en

Snoopfree is a good free anti-keylogger that may detect the password stealer and any other keyloggers that could be hidden on your computer. http://www.snoopfree.com/

Maybe a Hijackthis log would show something. Download it here. http://www.spywareinfoforum.com/~merijn/downloads.html I would try it also. Then post your log so the experts can let you know if they find anything suspicious. Here's a good place you can post your Hijackthis log http://www.dslreports.com/forum/security

If all else fails you could always reformat and reinstall Windows. That will remove any hidden spyware, trojans or password stealers on your computer.

Best of luck.
