Run in with SpyAxe
Had a major run-in with SpyAxe earlier this year. Its supposedly an anti-spyware tool. But it installs itself on your m/c wihtout your permission and then just doesn't go away. No matter how many times I deleted the installation and cleaned up the registry, it always came back. Went to the Norton website, McCafee website, they'd heard of it, but couldn't cure anything from what they said.
Finally took a chance and downloaded a fix from a forum. Worked this time. SpyAxe is gone. Thanks to Naohdfear.
Best preventive measure is don't access the internet from an administrator a/c, don't give them a chance to download and install.
