Obviously my son has been visiting sites he should not have. I have run Spybot but have a couple items it says it can’t remove until a restart is done. I do a restart and it doesn’t run again. The problem is a toolbar that opens and I believe is associated with what Spybot identifies as Huntbar. Any ideas on how to remove??

Yep did that. Went to control panel and remove programs. Spybot detects it but one part doesn’t remove?? The advanced features on the web site you sent are not accessable?? Thanks for trying.

You may have to go into the registry and manually remove it. it might have a loop back embedded into the registry, so no matter how many times you remove it, it showes up with every restart, or reboot. look at symantec.com, put in the search bar or name that you are looking for, and they will tell you what and where to look to completely remove it from your pc.

March 29, 2004 at 1:24 pm #298703Sgt, you can try another spyware program that is free that I like more than spybot, it is called ad-aware. Go to \\www.download.com and search for it. It should be the fourth one from the top. Ad-aware 6.0 build 181. I find that it is a much better tool than spybot.
Hope this helps.
If you have any questions, shoot me a pm.March 29, 2004 at 2:36 pm #298713Downloaded the ad-aware and I think it has worked. Was getting concerned I’d have to get into the reg edit
Thank you everyone.
