Hi. I have been infected with the QVDNTLMW Toolbar. My computer illiterate dad apparently pressed an OK on a popup lastnite that he shouldn't have. It installed the toolbar and 3 desktop icons. I have run ATF-Cleaner and Spybot. Spybot got rid of 2 of the destop icons but 1 remains (Privacy Protector…with attached webaddy: www.viruswebprotect.com) Spybot got rid of many spyware. I have run virus software but this toobar and desktop icon remain…The toolbar isn't listed on the ADD/REMOVE Programs Control Panel. I want this fake toolbar gone and this Desktop Icon associtated with viruswebprotect.com. Can You Help Me? *** Update*** I have run SmitfraudFix and it has removed the last desktop icon which was PRIVACY PROTECTOR. The QVDNTLMW Toobar is still present. :( *** Update 8:41PM*** The 3 Bad Desktop Icons are Back!!! Spyware&Malware Protection, Error Cleaner, and Privacy Protector. All belong to viruswebprotect.com…..also the Toolbar is still attached to my Internet Explorer.

Hi. It is OK now. I sorted it after much reading. It was killed nicely for now. If I have any more problems I will repost. Bye. :thumbup:
