Zone Alarm Security Suite has found some spyware called Win32.AskYaYa.

It deletes it but on reboot the spyware returns.

Has anyone come across this before?

Would appreciate any help on manually deleting this from my pc please?

Thanks in advance.

 

you tried spybot and Adaware se? and also you could try booting into safe mode and then try removing it via zonealarm, then reset, see it if works that way

 

Boot into safe mode, then run....

Adware

Or

Spybot S&D

Zone alarm is'nt great IMHO

Hope that helps

 

stick it into google and there are loads of answers on the web

 

Is there an echo in here?

 

and go in to the prefetch and delete the exe file

 

Thanks for the quick responses guys

I have tried all the spyware programs including spyware doctor and adaware, and they all fail to pick this up. Only Zonealarm detects this within the registry

Any other ideas?

 

you have tried going into safe mode and performing all the above tasks?

 

Try pc tools registry mechanic to erase the files from you registry.

 

This could be a false positive and only ZA picks this up.

Do you have a program installed on PC called Spyware Doctor. If so, ZA might be picking up a file related to this and thinks its infected.
