View Full Version : spyware removal question
Guys, I had someone install v 1.4 on my system and decided to try it today for the first time.
it found 60 threats (red) and I opted to FIX which I assume it did. Well, after that, i did an update and decided to run search again and it found the exact same problems except for one so 59 total.
What's the deal?
Thanks
George

Spybot 1.5 is the current version. Consider upgrading.
It would help if you posted the log of the actual detections you are getting. To do that:
Run another scan.
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.

I don't mind upgrading though but I was curious why this happens and if there is something I don't understand.

Spybot 1.5 can immunize Firefox whereas Spybot 1.4 could not.
Spybot 1.4 sometimes has trouble removing Firefox tracking cookies. There are suggestions in the following post on how to remove them as well as block them from being stored in the future:

There is also another discussion about FireFox tracking cookies (3rd party cookies) in the following thread:
Reappearing cookies?
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=10743
Alright, I'll try the newer version and see if that'll take care of it but I kinda screwed something up last night so I may have to go back to a much older configuration on the computer...oh well :)
Thanks

What is Cid.IEPop? I have removed it at least 15 times, but it still comes back. I think itis responsible for "killing" my computer and having to send it to a computer repairman.......
Any ideas what it is? Or how to permanently get rid of it?

hello,
CiD.IEPop is part of a series of trojan horses that usually get installed along with other software. It usually has serveral instances running in background and registered in system start. This may be a new variant that does not get detected completely, which is why the found entries return/ get recreated by the trojan horse.
Please create a full Spybot S&D log and attach it to your next post. You can also check your system start for strange folder and filenames like Atom mp3 admin, Htmbiasbowsfork, Free draw chic, LOGANTIFORK, okay four.exe, Bindhole.exe or similar. These names usually change from version to version so they may not be present, with the log file we will be able to determine which system start entries are suspicious and help you with removal.
I hope this is what you mean. I am not particularly computer savvy. If this is not what you need, let me know and I will try again. Thanks so much for your help. I so appreciate it.

hello,
I am sorry I should have told you how to get the full Spybot log, what you posted is only the search result list :oops:
To get the log:
* switch Spybot S&D to advanced mode
* then go to "Tools" - "View Report"
* check all boxes
* click the "View Report" button
* export the report to a text file and attach it to your next post, since the report will be very long posting it directly would take up several posts.

Hello,
I am sorry, but this is also not the full report.
Please send us a complete bug report. In order to do so, please run Spybot - Search & Destroy and switch to Advanced Mode via the menu item Mode, let it scan, try to fix the problems (!) and then go to "Tools" --> "View Report". Tick all the 10 checkboxes (leave "Do not report disabled or known legitimate items" unchecked) you can find there and click on "View Report". Now choose "Export" and save the file to your desktop.
Best regards
Sandra
