Spybot won't remove the following:

Fraud.WindowsProtectionSuite

and

Microsoft.Windows.Redirected Hosts

Says, "unexpected error; cannot create file
C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Access is denied

I am not computer savvy, so please provide easy instructions.

(I am "redirected" all the time. It's dreadful.)
Thanks.

I can't get the program to run to copy the code. Beth Ann

Hi,

Download DDS and save it to your desktop from here (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.com) or here (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/dds.scr) or here (http://www.forospyware.com/sUBs/dds).
Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds file to run the tool.
When done, DDS will open two (2) logs:
DDS.txt
Attach.txt

Save both reports to your desktop. Post them back to your topic.
