      You have to disable the active desktop, but it has to be done via the registry. That's the spyware porngraph uses. Annoying as shit, I know. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer Add a DWORD value called NoActiveDesktop and set the data to 1. Restart, you're set.

                I use both Ad-aware and Spybot Search and Destroy. Sometimes, an anti-spyware program alone cannot detect all the unwated spywares.

                Both have separate databases.

                  If I just remove the Exploit-MhtRedir.gen will that fix the issue? Just read the Lane thread briefly, saying thats the culprit
