    OK Wlfwo, thanks for the info.

    All I can say is that if you run A-Squared, even though you have other security apps, it will show up stuff that none of the others find. it really is worth a try.

    Most of these apps can't find rootkits, but the rootkits themselves aren't the problem, it's the exe files they create that then do the bad stuff. A-Squared will find all those. If you clean a PC with it, then the exe files return, it means there is a rootkit in there. Only rootkit removers will work then. Or a reformat.

    For example I just ran SuperAntiSpyware and Prevx on a PC, they found nothing. A-Squared found 6 trojans and they weren't FP's (false positives).

    Also block ftp.exe in your firewall rules, it is well known for dialling out without your knowledge.

    That is what the combofix was for, but I did run A-squared and it didn't find anything either. My understanding is Combofix deals with rootkits also. I might be wrong though. I will say it hasn't popped up on me today. I will check for the ftp.exe.

    Just got it a minute ago. First time so I was thinking, "What the devil is going on!"

    EDIT: I guess we must have patience.
