You have to delete them all.\n\nMicrosoft has a free download tool called AntiSpyware or their newest one is Defender.  Check it out

Get a popup blocker from Google or Yahoo. Then run a spyware program such as Spybot or AdAware. That should clean up your system or at least tell you what is affecting it so you can manually search and remove the pesky things.

All of these are ones that I personally use and all are free.\n\nI-Worm/Stration · BackDoor.Generic3.GBB and .GBC · Worm/Generic.FX · Exploit.WMF\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/lng/us/tpl/v5\n\nSpybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org/\n\nhttp://superantispyware.com/\nSUPERAntiSpyware is the most thorough scanner on the market. Our Multi-Dimensional Scanning and Process Interrogation Technology will detect spyware that other products miss! SUPERAntiSpyware will remove ALL the Spyware, NOT just the easy ones!\nEasily remove over 100,000 pests such as SmitFraud, Vundo, WinFixer, SpyAxe, SpyFalcon, WinAntiVirus, AntiVermins and thousands more!\nMake sure after you download any of these, that you update them.

I suggest that you call a qualified technician to do the job. He may need to reinstall all the lost programs, operating systems in your PC and get rid of the virus completely.

Download Spybot S&D from:\n\nhttp://www.download.com/Spybot-Search-Destroy/3000-8022_4-10401314.html?tag=lst-0-1\n\nand use it to run a scan and clean up your computer.

Go to http://www.pestpatrol.com and install the trial version. It will scan your computer and it will pick up limewire as one of the programs being a spyware. Make Pest Patrol delete it.\n\nOr go to program files in your C directory and delete the folder for limewire.\n\nThen go to start menu, go to run, and then type REGEDIT. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and click on software and find limewire, and delete it. You are deleting the registry for it too that way.

As these are all spyware or malware related, you might try a free trial of Webroot's SpySweeper.\nhttp://www.webroot.com/\n\nFollowed up with Ewido (free trial) if SpySweeper fails to remove them all.\nhttp://www.ewido.net/\n\nNote: For max effectiveness, scan with Ewido in Safe mode.

The two programs you cite are Anti-spy programs. What kind of virus protection do you have? If you don't have one Download AVG or Avast. They are both free and very good. Go to this windows site and it will walk you through the proper process to remove the infection.\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/IE/community/columns/bugbusting.mspx\n\nYou can also go to this site and  run the full online scan and then have it remove what it finds.\n\nhttp://housecall.trendmicro.com/\n\nYou have an Infection and deleting the unwanted sites will not do it. The infection will put them back as soon as you delete them.\n\nOnce  you run the online scan and removal get one of the AV programs. Then go to www.novatix.com and download Cyberhawk. It works with you AV/AS programs and works great to prevent infections. It will also detect infections already on your computer. I use it and think it's a great program.

No, I recommend Symantec Firewall/Anti-Virus, Ad Aware SE, System Mechanic and maybe Spy Doctor.  Some catch most, but all it takes is one bad virus or malware etc....

Ok here's what you do:\n\n1)  Download SpyBot Search & Destroy, AdAware, and Spy Sweeper (search on the net, first 2 are free and you can get the third as a trial version)\n2)  Download a personal firewall like ZoneAlarm or Kerio if you don't already have one installed.  Run it.\n3)  Run scans with all 3 of the programs I mentioned first.  This will clear your computer of all the spyware and adware you might have.  \n\nThe firewall will protect you from a good deal of malicious things on the net, but not all.  To ensure your computer stays clean, keep updated versions of SpyBot and AdAware and scan about once a week.  \n\nThis should fix your problems.  Spy Sweeper is a one-time thing, as the trial expires after 30 days, but it can detect a couple of things that SpyBot and AdAware can't.
