Removing Spyware caused by Screen Mates! Help!
Hello,
I recently downloaded some Screen Mates from Screenmates.com. They seemed pretty cool at first and Spybot didn't pick up any spyware.
(Cuz they are new ones, so I guess they've not been found yet :P )
Anyway, I picked up some old ones that Spybot found and removed the registry entry. However, I'm certain I still have some of the spyware since the old ones were picked up.
If it is possible, I wish to remove the spyware and keep the screen mates :laugh:
If not well... I guess I'll get rid of them, since they are quite bad with adware etc... :sad:
Here's is the Spybot S&D log in PDF, since my Adobe can be made a Printer this is the only way I know how to make it...

Please tell me how to remove the Scree-Mates spyware :spider:
I browsed in Regedit btw, and some of the screenmates reg keys are in other places than just adtools inc. others such as:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ice Age ScreenMate
Your time is greatly appreciated.

Thumbs.db files everywheres...
Hmm...
I thought it were all over until now :eek:
I also recently installed Deskmates, Oska to be specific.
However, after removing them I've noticed a file called "Thumbs.db" appearing in all of my folders. I'm not sure what it is, but when I try to delete them it says it is a system file. I've deleted a few appearing in files I send out by using the "Shift+Delete". :lip:
:oops:
Please let me know how to fix this problem if you can.
