    Question ISTbar

    Hi everyone,

    On my other computer I used to have a virus called ISTbar and have noticed that it is spreading through many sites and downloads. I myself got it through downloading music :( I was just wondering if spybot SD can find ISTbar and delete it?? On my other computer I used AVG antivirus to get rid of the sick little thing.

    thanks
