Hi,

I run the latest version of Spybot, completely updated, it detects a spyware named "Webdialer", there is also a + that would allow me to see which kind of spyware is, but unfortunately, from the moment Spybot detects it, the computer freezes and CTR+Alt+Dlt does not help either, I have to switch the PC off pushing the switch off button.

Adware Personal edition, does not detect it.

What can I do to get rid of this bloody dialer?

Thank you!
Alex

I forgot to mention that the OS is W2K.

hi Metallo,

you might try running SBSD in safe mode. to reach safe mode you tap the f8 key during a computer reboot. chose first option, safe mode.

see item #4 in this sticky, about HJT:
