    thanks for the tip balamm.. i should have just searched for the individual file instead of the trying to find the folder it was in. Very silly on my part.

    and thanks ninja, spy sweeper did find the wildtangent stuff and i am dealing with it now.

    wait.. this really sucks.

    Im removing all the spyware spysweeper found and the only one it cant remove is wildtangent. It scans the files, which take about 5 minutes each with the noise coming from my harddisk i think... then say i have to remove them manually..
    when i go to the folder to remove them manually i hit delete then i get the noise and it freezes for a couple minutes.. then the error:

    Cannot delete wildtangent.jar: Error performing in page operation.

    Any ideas?

    Here&#39;s something to try if your file system is FAT16 or 32 - make a win98/95 or Ms-Dos boot disk, start into dos mode, and Deltree the file. Its a little trick is used to use all the time to nuke stubborn files like that.

    Im not sure if it could easily be done on an ntfs system though, if its possible to start up to *just* the command prompt you could try a deltree from there, or just a normal del, but ive got a sneaking suspicion that its not easy to do under 2k or XP.

    No, don&#39;t email them. Go into your control panel and security options. Look for "clear page file on shut down" It&#39;ll take a while to do this the first time so be patient while it clears. Before you restart, set a real low limit on the page file. Just enough to run the system. 300mb maybe?

    Restart in safe mode and you should be able to pick out the pieces of this virus crap.
    Have you run chkdsk /r yet ? give it a try and see if some of the problems lessen.

    booting from an XP or win2k CD gives you that option. You just select the repair option instead of install, then go to the command prompt.
