I have no idea how it came to be on my computer but now Spybot finds it but I can't remove it. It doesn't show in the Uninstall Programs or under All Programs. I've looked around and can't find a way to get rid of it. Can anyone help out on this one? Thanks.

Hello Mokey,

Which version of Spybot Search & Destroy do you have and what is the operating system? :)

Did you run Spybot-S&D as Administrator? "How can I get administrator rights" (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=55946)

Best regards.

I had to do a little more digging but I found a thread here that said to right click on the Spybot icon and then to Run As Administrator. Easy as that. I'm posting this so maybe someone else will stumble across the fix. Thanks.
