Thank you. I downloaded and used each of the tools you recommended and can no
longer find any signs of malware. Your help is greatly appreciated.

I have discovered that my PC is full of malicious spyware and trojans. I had
eTrust anti-virus and personal firewall, as recommended by my cable internet
company, and they did not stop these trojans. I have windows defender now,
and although it has stopped several malicious softwares from installing, it
cannot locate the ones that already exist on my PC. I tried to install my old
antivirus...Norton Systemworks...but the malware prevented the entire
software from installing. It was recommended that I install Adware SE, but
when I am directed to download.com to do this, a page saying that page cannot
be found and that I should install Disk Doctor 2006 instead. I know Disk
Doctor is malicious software, so I have not done this. I need to know what to
do. Do I have my entire PC wiped out and start over, or what? Need answers
immediately! Thanks in advance for any input offered.
Always remember - only download files from Trusted Sites.
The following links will take you to vendors sites for Spy Ware / Ad
ware removal tools and also for Antivirus tools. After you install any
of these applications and update them, run them in SAFE MODE to allow
them to properly clean your system.
First, make sure that your Java is updated to the latest version:
http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp
These sites are for downloading Anti-Malware and Anti-Spyware tools, in
order that I would use them myself:
Dave Lipman's tools:

Secured2K's AntiPauper (download link/info at)
