Hope you can assist

Ran spybot and found the following:

1 stration.c
5 hupigon13
1 hellzlittlespy
1 win32.agent.pz
2 win32.agent.ys
43 smitfraud-c.
1 coolwwwsearch.hjg
2 winagent.qlo
1 win32,brontok
1 win32.nosok.b
2 win32.autorun.homevideo

clicked fix and poof, I lost windows XP. Could not recover, had to reinstall

Reinstalled norton internet security
Ran it and found no issues either in normal or safe mode
Now, I can't scan for viruses, option has disappeared

Ran spybot and found the above again ( only found in safe mode)

So I am at the part where I push "Fix" and am very reluctant to do so as I don't know which of the little nasties caused this

Assistance would be appreciated

Hi mikeyd,

welcome to Safer Networking Forums. :)

I can't you tell which of theese spyware caused your problem, because I will start my Malware Removal training in three weeks. ;)

But if you want an security expert to look over your system, read the thread "BEOREE you POST" (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288) and after that open your own thread in the Malware Removal Forum (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22).

Best regards,
