I've been running Ad-aware, Spybot and Hijack this to see if anything there, and in the middle of all that, Norton AV pops up and says I have W32 Spybot worm present, so I'm doing a full AV check to see what it comes up with...

COuld one of you try and follow this link - don't worry it's a safe download site for utilities! A while ago I got the latest version of Hijack This from there, and now it's giving the same thing.

Quite possibly...although W32 Spybot worm wouldn't change the html in your browser

Hate to recommend M$, but I tried the latest Beta version of their Antispyware on my brother-in-law's PC and it found about a dozen things that Ad-Aware et al had missed - maybe worth a go BigC.

Cheers Dave, tried that to no effect... actually haven't tried the simple one yet, clearing out the browser cache, I'll give that a go later

Luckily the Spybot worm was only in a couple of zipped games I'd 'borrowed' on Limewire.... so hadn't had a chance to do any damage.... so they've been zapped.

Limewire shafted me the other week.

Downloaded some software, and all it activated was an "unshutdownable" version of limewire!!....took me hours to delete the pesky thing.

I've now moved on to BearShare from limewire.
