    Default Spybot finds many odd files I can't locate

    Hi. When I watch SpyBot's progress, as it names the files it's examining, I see names of suspicious sounding files like vario.antivirus, kgbkeylogger, and many others, that I can not find with a WindowsXP search including hidden and system files.

    What are these scary sounding files, and how can I get rid of them? Or are they files?

    Thanks,
    Jim

    Hello,

    This is only the status bar displaying the products Spybot - Search & Destroy is currently searching for. It does not mean that all these items are on your PC.
    So...don't worry.

    Ah, thanks! Wow, fast reply.

    I hope you can help with my other problem, see other thread. I downloaded webwasher and installed it, from seimens website, linked there by spybot page. It's messing my computer up pretty badly.

    Thanks!!!
