I tried all the software mentioned: spybot, ad-aware and CWShredder. I also
downloaded the lastest update before I ran these programs. I removed all
the possible spyware suggested by these software. I also ran the
Hijackthis program and posted the log to the Aumha Forums. I haven't heard
anything back from Aumha Forums yet.

Thanks for pointing out all the different resources for me to try. I'll
keep trying.

George.
