    Default Malware Not being Blocked

    SpyBot finds malware. I check them all, and get problems fixed confirmation. Rescan a few days later, same malware is found. All found are tracking cookies. All sites are in Blocked list in Explorer.
    Where can I block these malware?
    They are: adrevolver, casalemedia, clickbank, doubleclick, mediaplex, statcounter, zedo. All have ".com" at end.

    harrisonr:

    What version of Spybot are you running(Spybot > Help > About)? What Browser are you using? Are you using Spybot's immunization facility?

    Please post a log of the repetitive detections you are getting. To do that, the next time you encounter the repetitive detections that you are concerned with:
    • When the scan completes, right click on the results list, select "Copy results to clipboard".
    • Then paste (Ctrl+V) those results to a new post in this thread.

    As an alternative, you can post a previous scan/fix log where you encountered the problem.

    By default here are two Checks.yymmdd-hhmm.log files produced during a scan. The second Checks.yymmdd-hhmm.log has the details of what the scan found. A Fixes.yymmdd-hhmm.log file is produced if you fix or attempt to fix something.

    There are two methods to copy and post the information from previous scans:
    • Method 1:
      • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced mode > Tools > View Reports > View Previous reports. Look for the Checks.yymmdd-hhmm.log or Fixes.yymmdd-hhmm.log file that contains the detections that you like help with. Open it. To copy it to the Clipboard, right click on the listing and select Select All > Right click again and select Copy. Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of the Clipboard into a new post in this thread.
    • Method 2
      • The Checks.yymmdd-hhmm.log and Fixes.yymmdd-hhmm.log files are stored in the following folders:
        • Windows 95 or 98:
          C:\Windows\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
        • Windows ME:
          C:\Windows\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
        • Windows NT, 2000 or XP:
          C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
      • Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the correct Checks.yymmdd-hhmm.log or Fixes.yymmdd-hhmm.log file. Double click on it and it should open with Notepad. To copy it to the Clipboard, right click on the listing and select Select All > Right click again and select Copy. Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of the Clipboard into a new post in this thread.

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.
