The file at "<$PROGRAMFILES>\SNT\Idv.dll".
The file at "<$PROGRAMFILES>\SNT\Idv.tlb".
The file at "<$PROGRAMFILES>\SNT\Idv.x64.dll".
Make sure you set your file manager to display hidden and system files. If SNT.BHO uses rootkit technologies, use the rootkit scanner integrated into Spybot-S&D (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=spybotsd) 2.x 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!
Important: There are more files 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.
Folders:
Please use Windows Explorer or another file manager of your choice to locate and delete these folders.
