    my spyware/adware removal program lists antivirus xp 2008 every time I run it. an attempt to remove the program crashes the spyware remover. I don’t seem to be experiencing any ill effects from the malware though. in fact, following the instructions you have posted here is impossible, a snone of these processes or files exist on my pc, not even in hidden files or folders. I have no idea what’s going on here. any ideas?
