    Question ~*~*Help me Please! ! !*~*~

    I just finished going through my registry and found an entry that has never been there before. Or I never noticed it before. It sounds sorta suspicious. If someone could tell me what it is, I would appreciate it. Just view the screenshot of the registry to see info. Thanks.

    I think it is SPYware bundled with KaZaA, I have it too, and the keys look the same, you could get an anti-spyware thing and/or dalete KaZaA. I could be wrong, But I'm almost positive it's spy-ware.

    Kazaa without the spyware, check it.

    Thanks for your help. I found out I got it when I installed Kazaa. . . I d/l Adaware & got rid of it. Thanks.

    Cydoor is a ad program, and a pesky one at that. Alot of Adware programs automatically install it to you computer, and if you remove it, the bundled software will quit working. Has anyone had any problems with a add called Sabre?

    I can't delete Cydoor from my computer, I d/l Adaware and it found and removed 82 files but there are 4 Cydoor ones that it won't get rid of, any ideas why this might be?

    They could have changed the 'strain' of spyware that hasn't been updated yet by Ad-Aware. Make sure you run RefUpdate 2.0 to have the latest reference file. If it's still there, then it hasn't been updated (I think) and you could do manual removal.
    We the willing, led by the unknowing, have been doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much with so little for so long that we are now qualified to do just about anything with almost nothing.

    Ok, thanks, I'll try that, it's acutally on my computer that can't access the net at the moment so I can't really check for upgrades now...can I just do manual removal anyway?

    If you close Kazaa and run adaware to have it delete thos files, you will have to reinstall Kazaa. Had it happen a couple times.
