Webhancer

[ginkgo]

Hi guys/gals,

Have this problem. Spybot detects webhancer but I dare not fix it as I read in some of the forums that upon removing, the link to the internet and such will be broken. Is this true?

And if so, what should I do?

Thanks a lot in advance guys/gals!

It is a rare thing that Webhancer is alone in a HJT log and there is usually other malware, but here is uninstall information.
