Spybot says "fixed" but the spyware remains?!

I've downloaded, uploaded, ugraded, searched out spyware innumberable times this afternoon.
Each time, Spybot locates some spyware (Error Safe, Reliable Stats, Winsoftware, Winanti-virus, Drive Cleaner, Privacy Pro...
I then click the fix tab and it says you have removed all of the above. I was thrilled the first time I heard this, but less thrilled as the spyware continued to re-bound several times...Spybot detects it, but it is NOT being removed!
Can anyone help?:sad:
 
There are two things that you can try to get rid of the things that Spybot-S&D is having difficulty removing:
  1. Try to run Spybot-S&D the next time you reboot.
    • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced mode > Settings > Settings > look for "System start" (located half way down the page).
    • Check the option: "Run program once at next system startup".
    • Reboot the system.
  2. Run Spybot-S&D in Safe mode.
    • Reboot your system in Safe mode and run Spybot-S&D.
If Spybot-S&D still fails to remove the problems you can request assistance in the Malware Removal forum. Follow the instructions here:
After completing those steps, start a new thread (topic) in the following forum (making sure to include the HijackThis log and online scan logs produced from the instructions above):
 
Fast!

:eek:

Good grief but you guys are fast! I appreciate that!

And, I will read the entire rule sheet before posting again, which is very unlike me.:red:

Thanks, I will follow your instructions and see what happens.
