alright, well when i was searching for a keygen a while back i accidentally clicked on the active X install, instantly kicking myself and yeah to late, it let a bunch of nastys in including all the subject matter (the ones i still cant remove) as well as spyfalcon and many others. its called vundo or something and ive tried the tool and deleting suggested registry keys but no such luck, it comes back. hoping someone would be able to help.
