Actually; the mild pest NEVER did any wrong except it bother me whenever I'm
using Run Command & I've to call-in CWShedder all the time to disabled it since
last year. Can I've this coming 2008 a clean PC?

Everybody knows to Format right-away is an over-killed -- not needing a MVP
to tell me that ;o) Cheers Robear ;o)

Right click on My Computer/Properties/System Restore tab/tick "Turn off system restore for all drives"/click Apply/OK. Reboot. Run the anti whatever applications again. Reboot. Run them again. If it's gone, reenable System Restore.

Why are you STILL running WinXP without SP2 or any post-SP2 critical
updates installed? You told me in Aug-07 that the machine had been
fully patched: http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28418
The right question is why did Microsoft selling us their WinXP with defects?
Even my SP2 CD refused to install.

YES, your advices are good BUT all I need now is to point me where
CWS MSConfig.exe is hiding. Please do NOT change my topic. TIA.




Did you clear your System Restore before using CWShredder to nuke the
pest. If not, it's probably hiding there and replicates itself every
time you nuke it.
