Help, after installing several programs from the PCworld DVD, I know I have a pop-up warning from a program called "spywarequake", telling me that I have spyware and critical errors on my comp. Spybot search and destroy and Adaware can not find this program. Who is "spywarequake" and how do I get rid of their program? I am unable to find where it is hidden.

Re: spyware

My recently updated Spybot program lists Spyware Quake And Spware Quake FakeAlert as trojans and will delete them if detected.

I use the Advanced mode of Spybot and if you click on settings, ignore products. Uou can check a list of possible threats and ensure that any box beside a threat is not ticked otherwise Spybot will ignore the program and not detect or remove it.
