I just googled your "spyware" and no results came through with that name..Are you sure that you have the right name

I'm not so sure its a spy.... maybe just an annoying cookie of some sort... but is there a chance I can manully delete it?

do you know if its a registry key or is it some sort of file?
If its a file you can go start>Search> type the name in

The best thing to do is to get Webroot Spysweeper!  and scan your computer! it will take care of it! After i run Spybot and Adaware, I run SPY SWEEPER! Its made for spyware, so you shouldnt have any problems removing it. Try it! After you install it, make a database update, and i dont remember if the trial version lets you clean it! i think you can, but even if it doesnt, "buy" the thing!
