    Bummer - I know what kind of frustration you are under - I got one of those lately too (not the exact one). The funny thing is 3 weeks after the machine got infected, MS Spyware Removal or McAfee would start to pick up the signature...

    By the way, I am conssider moving to WordPress, but your bug report on the broken Xanga cross-posting worried me. May be I should stick with an older version like 1.5 or something...

    Yes?

    Thank you so much. You are pretty much the ONLY ONE on the 'net promoting a fix for this problem. One of my users almost took my head off for not fixing this sooner - so thank you, thank you, thank you.

    Thanks a lot for this info! This malware has been plaguing me for weeks, and yours is about the only place I found any useful removal info. Thanks again!!

    BLACKMAIL? MORE LIKE EXTORTION! MORE LIKE HAVING 'MUSCLE' FROM THE 'MOB' (A GOOMBA) DROPPING BY YOUR BUSINESS AND WANTING A WEEKLY 'CASH DONATION' TO AVOID HAVING YOUR PIZZA JOINT TRASHED. I MEAN IT'S ALMOST BAD ENOUGH TO CAUSE BILL GATES TO LEAVE MICROSOFT "SO HE CAN REORDER HIS PRIORITIES"(WASH HIS HANDS OF THE WHOLE MESS). EXCEPT NOW IT'S SOMEONE USING A SINGAPORE ADDRESS ONE WEEK AND A BRAZILIAN ADDRESS THE FOLLOWING. NEXT WEEK TEL AVIV? THE SAME PERSON, WHO KNOWS? AT LEAST WITH THE 'MOB' YOU KNOW WITH WHOM YOU ARE DEALING.

    vundofix and spybot work great at removing this. You should also only run the tools in safe mode for best chance of removal. I also use ccleaner, adaware to help make sure this is gone. If you know how to use it Highjackthis works great. If you are not technically inclined I would not use highjack this
