    I ran Spysweeper and it found 8 things

    Alexa Toolbar
    Eacceleration
    Internet Washer
    Diamond Deal Casino
    Ps2
    Ace Club Casino
    vx2 (Transponder)

    I had it fix these, but when looking in my files, I still see this ps2. Tried a search for it, but all I get is for Play Station 2.

    Running Cleanup, it is located in C:\\WINDOWS\System32\ps2.exe.uninstall
    Says it is a downloaded file
    Can anyone tell me anyhting about this?

    Thanks
    Gal

    Any other info about any of the other things it found would be appreciated too.

    I believe the PS2.EXE file is an application that provides functionality to the keyboard on Hewlett Packard computers. Do you have an HP computer?

    Your welcome. Did all of the other items cleanup okay?

    Yes, I think so.

    I ran Panda and Housetrend scans. Neither found anything. I am still doing searches for them on my computer.
    So far, so good.
    Thanks
