Hi. Yesterday I stupidly clicked on a link in an msn window that was sent to me. It turned out to be some sort of spyware and despite running several scans of norton, adaware, and spybot, the problem keeps coming back after I reboot. Norton says that the malware is called adware.maxsearch and it claims to have cleaned it. Adawear and Spybot also have claimed to remove entries from my registry. However, after i reboot my pc, msn automatically starts and signs in, which it is not supposed to, and starts sending links to my online contacts. I've run several scans and the problem keeps coming back. Does anyone know what else I can do to get rid of this problem??
