Hello.

Today I downloaded a program called Xoftspy.
Anyway, it detected, trojans, BHO, 1 worm, and more.

anyway, I cant remove any because it is only the trial version.

Seeing as its only the trial version, I cant save logs, so I took a screen capture of the scan results.

The BHO class, are not detected with Hijackthis. And should I be worried about that Extreme threat BHO?

I searched my registry for searchupgrader, and found:

So should i delete that?

Also, I really want to remove those trojans, and other threats. Is there another free program that will find those same results, and actually let me remove them?

Thankyou very much,
Luke

Hi Punkbus. Those can be a bear to remove. You can try the Microsoft AntiSpyware Beta. It cleans up alot of issues. After that post a HijackThis log in the malware fourm and we can check it and if necessary give directions on how to clean up the rest of it. Here is a link on how to submit a HijackThis log:Cheers.
