Spyware Quake

Not Long Ago i Had SPyware Quake, And i was able to delete it no problem whatsoever. NOw today my brotherw as using the computer and he said notice i said he said lol he went to last known good configuration and now its back. NOw my norton Anti Virus DID find and it said it deleted it but yet it seems to show up when it wants to. I've ran all kinds of scans and such and everything seems to be fine. But i'm really not sure it is . When spyware quake was abck it did shut down my norton anti virus protection and wouldn't let it run my liveupdate. When i tried it would tell me to go to the technical support delete norton and install it again because one of my installation's was corrupt or something like that. So How do i know if Spyware quake is on my computer. Thanks in advance

• Make sure you also rename HijackThis.exe as suggested in the procedures. Use analyse.exe for the new name. This is very important due to some new infections going around..

http://www.majorgeeks.com/images/grenade.gifWhen you return to make your next post, make sure you attach the following logs and that you have run these scans in the following order too:

• CounterSpy
• AVG Antispyware log - ONLY IF NEEDED you were not able to run CounterSpy
• Bitdefender - from step 6
• Panda Scan - from step 6
• runkeys.txt - the log from GetRunKey.bat
• newfiles.txt - the log from ShowNew.bat
• HijackThis

NOTE: You can only attach 3 files in a single message so it will require that you use two messages to attach all of these logs!
