Ooh cooties.... stay away.

My son managed to get my machine infected with Spy Axe 3.0, and I was able to remove it.

Get yourself a copy of Smitfraud/SpyAxe fix. You will also want ewido (the fellow in another post suggest it)--it's very helpful.

This helped rid me of it.

Follow instructions precisely, and you'll be rid of it as I now am. Best of luck!

zone alarm pro does a real good job on spyware, way above ad aware

And that's the difference between a free program and one that costs you $30! (Of course, if you are like me, you didn't pay $30 for ZAP... EBay is a wonderful thing...)

I'll do my utmost to mend my ways and never commit such a crime again.

The #1 'trick' that I know of when removing bugs, trojans and spyware is to shutdown your Restore Program before starting any removals.
