O.P. I have a problem when chatting :S
Hello, I think this is a little off topic, but I don' know where to ask for help :S....The problem is when I'm chatting with someone, I think I have an spyware bot installed, it sends auto messages to my contact, every like 20-25 minutes, it's a real pain!! :@ I've tried deleting it using Ad-aware, Spybot but it keeps on doing this, have anyone ever had a problem like this?? :S Any help would be greatly apreciated ^_^!!

Go to xoftspy.com (http://www.xoftspy.com this is a link click here for all who are too lazy to copy and paste or type) Newayz Go there and download xoftspy 4.02 (I have it) Then update all definitions and then goto "scan settings" and click the link saying "click here to select folders" Then select all folders of hard disc and click start to start a scan of entire hard disc. This will find all spyware (even hidden in installation file etc).
This Works  (i've tried it) If any problems post here.

well..to be sure it's not a virus, check your system again with ad-aware and also download an anti-virus program such as the free AntiVir - Personal Edition which actally checks for viruses as ad-aware and spybot s&d mainly check for spy- and adware.
If the problem still exists after you run a check with AntiVir, please let us know :)
