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!!!
