Spy Sweeper keeps picking up CWS

    During manual scans, Spy Sweeper has picked up CWS 2 times in the last day.

    I've run Adaware and Spybot but these don't seem to pick it up. I've also run CWShredder (both TM version and last Merijn version) after the first "infection" and second one, but these don't seem to be picking it up either.

    I've run all progs in safe mode to be sure. HiJackthis log looks fine, nothing out of the ordinary. And my IE7 settings haven't been modified as far as I can tell, and I haven't been redirected either.

    The only thing I can think of at this point is that Spy Sweeper is picking up on a false positive.

    Thoughts?

    Is your copy of Spy Sweeper a paid version or free trial version?

    Attach a log from Spy Sweeper!

    Did you run the READ & RUN ME? If so why didn't you attach the 6 requested logs?
