Ok I am running windows xp home sp1
ad aware
spybot S&D
AVG

I had previously been infected with this PS Guard crap and was able to sucsessfully kill it with spybot s&d. This time however when i do a scan with it and then tell it to fix(delete) the found problems i get told it couldn't kill 2 items because they are currently being used in the memory. It then asks if i want to run spybot after my next comp restart to delete ps guard before it loads. Now this all happened last time and when i re-booted last time spybot started before anything loaded, all i could see was my background there was no taskbar or desktop icons, and then finished killin ps guard. This time however when i reboot spybot does not start while windows is loading and therefore doesn't finish cleaning out ps guard. Does anyone know of a program specifically written for killing ps guard or a way to make spybot do what its supposed to do?
