Yeah, it found some trojan downloaders on mine, which was kinda scary!

I downloaded and installed it.
It found WinControl, a Keylogger!

Thanks a lot, Jon.

I've just downloaded and installed Counter Spy - £15 for 3 years worth of
updates was too silly a price to pass up. This evening, I'd run Spybot 1.4,
Ad-Aware 1.06, ZoneAlarm's AS tool and diskclean before I ran Counter Spy.
it picked up 16 items that needed treating.



It's good - runs nice and small in the background, even on my E6600 Core 2
Duo with 2gb RAM ;-)



I'm kinda worried as to how long some of these things have been on my system
though, although I've only had this new build installed for just over a
month, it picked up things in the windows folder on the old hard drive. who
knows what's been allowed to happen? Scary stuff!





Jon
