Re: Lavasoft Rapid Response to SpyAxe

Got hit with SpyAxe again this evening so I tried Spybot - S&D (with latest updates) for removal. Nothing doing---pieces of SpyAxe remained, including the annoying little icon in systray with its constant click, click, click.

So I tried Ad-Aware (again, latest updates) and that didn't remove it either. Pieces of SpyAxe were all over the place including the icon from hell.

Popped in the Terabyte Image for Windows Boot CD and restored to a known good configuration. SpyAxe is gone.

Why aren't Spybot and Ad-Aware successful in removing SpyAxe?

Re: Lavasoft Rapid Response to SpyAxe

It seems to me you need to get some protection. Re-imaging is no fun if you have to do it on a daily basis.
