Hello, I am new here.

As of late , spybot seems to find a program which I choose to fix. However it comes back and perhaps not right away but when I run spybot every so often it is there. There is no description of what it is or what it does.

See attachment ...

Hello blaaaaaaaaa,

The image shows Iron Install . toolbar. Amazon

It is a PUP (potentially unwanted program) possibly installed with a freeware.

Optional Installs (https://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?279-So-how-did-I-get-infected-in-the-first-place&p=286306&viewfull=1#post286306)

If you cannot manually remove it from your browsers please see the Malware Removal Forum (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22) sticky which includes guidelines and 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.

Then start a new topic in that forum providing the logs so a volunteer analyst can provide assistance. :)

Best regards.
