I have a Windows XP Home PC Service Pack 2 with all the latest updates
Norton Antivirus, Spybot Search & Destroy, Ad-Aware and MS Antispyware all
with the latest updates. After running both Spybot and Ad-Aware the system
was running well. I installed the MS Antispyware and ran the first scan and
clean. It removed 18 severe to moderate threats. It required a reboot after
which the Service Pack 2 Firewall would not activate automatically or
manually. I restored Windows prior to the scan and systematically eliminated
the threats down to one.
CouponDeals (Adware)
located C:\Windows\System32\cdlsp.dll

If this one is removed the Firewall will not start so I have set it to
ignore allways.

Is this file infected or has it been mis-identified by MS Antispyware ?
Anyone have a clue?
