Friends
I had a dialler three years ago, it used my phone and cost me plenty.
I was unable to rid my self of it, so I blocked All of my Tolls.
This makes me safe, but is very inconvenient.
spybot finds A Dialer called Holystic but is not able to remove it, I have spent three years trying to rid myself of Holystiv, most anti virus are unable to find it.
Has anyone any suggestions ? IS it maybe a false positive?
Thanks Mark

Thanks so much , I thought I would not find that one, but obviosly I have
Regarding first post I did exactly as you suggested and ran SB in Safe mode
( That is itself is something learned)
SB did not discover HOLISTYC
SO I rebooted and tried again in Normal Mode.
This time SB discovered it but could not remove it.
I suppose it might be a false positive , in which case should I ignore it
THANKS again MARK PUZZLED

Run SpyBot check for problems, fix all red items, when its finished right click and choose copy results
(not full report) to clipboard and paste that back here please.

Post a HijackThis 1.99.1 log
First Make a new folder, example C:\AntiSpyWare
and download/Save HijackThis, to that new folder.
This is necessary to ensure you have backups should anything go wrong

Double click HijackThis.exe, Hit None of the above, just start the program.
Hit Scan When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button. Press that, save the log somewhere, and please show us its contents.
Most of what it lists will be harmless or even required, so do NOT fix anything yet.
