I downloaded SpyBot to specifically address this known problem with GreatArcadeHits adware / malware. While SpyBot located other issues on its first scan it did not locate this item and its still annoying me. Any thoughts / recommendations on other software to remove it?

Hello WConway,

Do you know how Great Arcade Hits got installed on your computer?

To ask for assistance in the Malware Removal Forum (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22) there is a FAQ. :)

It includes instructions in post #2 on how to provide the logs from Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and aswMBR, which are the logs used in the preliminary analysis.

But first please list:

The operating system
Other security programs installed
Any other issues with the computer's performance


Best regards.
