    Hey all, I've tried the read and run me first programs, these 2 things keep coming back. Very annoying. I keep getting this spyaxe program trying to execute, microsoft antispyware keeps blocking it though, my browser's homepage has changed into this fake site about using spyaxe and spytroop programs...please advise.

    I did everything in the sticky posts. Spy bot keeps saying i have 2 problems, windows security center.antivirus disable notify and firewalll disable notify. Spy bot also has a pop up half way through the scan it says problems have occured in c:\program files\spybot-search_destroy\Includes\hijackers.sbi it has an ok button, press it and the scan continues. Do you still want me to include the logs as attachments?

    Yes you need to attach the logs SPD requested:
    The message about Windows Security Center are not problems. They are warnings that you have changed from system defaults. This is due to running 3rd party AV and firewall. To fix the Spybot problem with hijackers.sbi, you should uninstall, reboot and then after reboot delete the whole C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy folder. Then reinstall Spybot, update, and scan.

    The registry search tool has a pop up window that says the scan took 40 seconds. It says there were no instances of "p2pnetworking" found, it also has an ok button. There was no word pad window that popped up from the reg search tool.

    Is there a reason why, you did not uninstall Viewpoint Manager, as requested.
    Other than that your log is clean.
