Hi Steve
Thats what has freaked me out!! I have got not only AVG antivirus the latest
edition but it is having the latest updates, further more I have the latest
spybot and the latest adaware and none of htem detected it.
It was only thanks to this forum adn the good people that I installed sygate
and zone alarm that I became suspicous.
if it hadn't been for that I would never have used other ones. Obviously
this is some kind of thing I have wrongly downloaded. It might not register
becuase it si an "executive" program so maybe they don't detect it until its
been clicked on.
