Quicklaunch area:

Please remove the following items from your start quick launch area text to the "Start" button in the taskbar at the bottom.
To check where they are pointing to, right-click them and choose "Properties" from the context menu appearing.

Quicklaunch symbols named "Beyond.lnk" and pointing to "<regexpr><$PROGRAMFILES>\\([A-Z][a-z] )\\[a-z] \.exe".

Autorun:

Please use Spybot-S&D (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=spybotsd), RunAlyzer (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=runalyzer) or msconfig.exe to remove the following autorun entries.

Entries named "ig-ec" and pointing to "<$PROGRAMFILES>\*\*.exe?co".

Important: There are more autorun entries that cannot be safely described in simple words. Please use Spybot-S&D (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=spybotsd) to remove them.

Files:

Please use Windows Explorer or another file manager of your choice to locate and delete these files.

The file at "<$COMMONPROGRAMS>\Suprem-tec\Beyond.lnk".
The file at "<$COMMONPROGRAMS>\Suprem-tec\Uninstall Beyond.lnk".
The file at "<$PROGRAMFILES>\<$REGMATCH1>\help.chm".

Make sure you set your file manager to display hidden and system files. If BeyondKeylogger uses rootkit technologies, use our RootAlyzer (http://forums.spybot.info/downloads.php?id=8) or our Total Commander anti-rootkit plugins (http://forums.spybot.info/downloads.php?id=3).
You will have to use a global search for files without a name specified. Be extra careful, because just the name might not be enough to identify files!
