Need ShowBehind elaboration.

1st, just installed and ran SpyBot - it detected and destroyed mucho stuff that AdWare did not, and system performance greatly improved -- THANKS!

Now, about ShowBehind, which somehow got installed in /windows/sbnet directory on 11-14-02. I had been wondering why I was suddenly getting "popunder" ads, now I know, and SpyBot detected it and destroyed it (AdWare did not). However, since I do not open emails from unknown parties or those from known senders which contain attachments that were not specifically requested, I cannot understand how it got installed.

Can anyone elaborate on this program?

My daughters dowloaded Imesh and some other music shareware stuff.

After that, I know get these "Messenger Service" pop-ups or popup-unders very frequently. I cannot find where they are coming from. I unistalled the sharewares (geez i miss Napster) but this stuff still keeps coming. It took me weeks to get rid of that xupiter.com garbage.

Any hints would be appreciated.

I'm running XP and cable at home on a homemade pc. Here at work, on win98 and an older pentium II and dsl, I'm as fast and no garbage at all.

My panicware stopper works 100% at work but only partially at home.

Thanks
