Rads01.quadrogram came back

Hermine · Jul 18, 2005

I followed the FAQ. It went away for a while. Now it's back.
Yes I disabled system restore (always the first question). Followed the whole FAQ.

Think the problem was rads01.quadrogram, of the things that adaware found. It's generating popups, even with browser closed and not yet opened. Apparently happens on startup or on logon of one particular user.

Oh, and I'm using:
XP Home.
1.8GhZ Pentium 4
512 MB memory

The primary user for this machine doesn't even use her browser, just Outlook (not the most secure, I know, but it's not my decision).

I can give you an Adaware logfile if needed.

I did all the tricks I know then I did the FAQ tricks. This is the adware that wouldn't die and I'm out of ideas.

Please help.
TIA.
