[gui-talk] piece of malware keeps coming back.

[Jude DaShiell]

Try calling (800)596-5900 and explain your problem.  If you have an 
activated copy of windows, the staff at Microsoft will remote into your 
computer and do some work on it for you.  That's the Microsoft 
Accessibility hotline.  I will be interested to know what kind of 
results you have once this is done.

> Hi list accidentally downloaded a medium level threat called Safrsaf from a bogus MP3 site.  have killed it with security essentials and malwarebytes twice now and it keeps coming back.  it only impacts firefox and I uninstalled and reinstalled a new clean copy of it and it is coming back.  basicly all this does is install unwanted toolbars and runs autoplayed commercials popups and links asking you to update your media player to a socalled flashplayer 12.  as mentioned killed it with malwarebytes and security essentials already and it?s back again.  scanned with malwarebytes and it picked it up.  now scanning with security essentials.  have also run Ccleaner to be double sure.  will probably do that again.  the bogus site and MP3 that contained the file originally has been reported to the singer whos song contained the file too.  why does this thing keep coming back when it has apparently been killed by both malwarebytes and security essentials.  should I maybe try spybot?
   is spybot 2.0 up to date with a full version?  have to uninstall the demo of that first.  is it more accessible?  thanks.  again this is a mid level threat according to security essentials.
