Have recently managed to get a browser hijacker which redirect me to hxxp://www.myspywarecleaner.com/sc/?hop= ( have not gone to their site - anybody who uses spyware/malware/browser hijackers to "advertise" their stuff' got to be dodgey!) - have run spybot but it doesn't seem to have got rid of it - tried to update spybot unsuccessfully a couple of times but get !!!badchecksum! is it likely that this hijacker could be blocking spybot? - Not sure where it came from - 3 teenagers also use this pc and despite antivirus (AVAST) windows firewall adaware still got this one - most likely with a download of some sort. Any Idea's on how to get rid of it and could it be specifically targetting spybot to prevent me from updating?
