have xp home, with system mechanic 6 pro , adaware pro, etrust pestpartol 5, registry mechanic, ashampoo - photo commander, antispyware, winoptimizer & burning studio 6, ms office 2003 pro, aol/yahoo/windows live messengers, winamp & limewire pro

the ashampoo one didnt work either, now trying a-squared anti-malware

i see it in the registry, when i scan with spytron of system mechanic, but can't delete it (dont know which files it is in),


I notice you have Limewire Pro. Did you PURCHASE this? Regardless, downloading files off P2P networks is highly risky and not advised. You should probably uninstall this software so that you are not affected again.

Also, none of the software you have sounds like an AV, correct me if I am WRONG but it is advised, as I am sure Chris will tell you to get - AVG Anti-Virus Free. (Direct .exe Link).Your log looks clean to me. Perform a scan online with Panda ActiveScan and post a log here. Also, download SUPERAntiSpyware and Spybot - Search & Destroy, update them and scan with them in Safe Mode (one at a time!). Let us know the results of your scans.

DeltaSlaya is right...I can't tell you to get rid of it, but you might want to reconsider using LimeWire. The program itself isn't considered malicious, but some of things you download through this client may be unsafe, and are likely contributors to your infection. Many downloads are also considered illegal, as they infringe on copyright laws.

Actually, they already have Kaspersky, which is a respectable anti-virus. Personally, I prefer AVG, but what they have is sufficient, so there's no need. They could certainly go for some better anti-spyware, though.Sorry, it's just that their AV wasn't mentioned here:

and yea now that I look it indeed is in their HJT log.No worries. They probably forgot to mention it.

hmsam, do you update Kaspersky and scan with it on a regular basis?it updates every three hrs and scans constantly by itself, because of kaspersky's antihacker makes it scans from the attacks of the helken attacks

scans full on friday mornings

spybot does not work, never tried superantispyware as mentioned above

oh i also installed the cleaner professiona from moosoft, found nothing tooTry removing SpywareBomb in Safe Mode and then scan with System Mechanic since it seems to be able to detect the program. If it still exists, you should also delete C:\Program Files\SpywareBomb, as well as the various files listed here...
http://www.emsisoft.com/en/malware/?Adware.Win32.SpywareBomb

Use Pocket KillBox if you have to. Once you've done all of this, try the Panda ActiveScan and post your results.RogueRemover is supposed to remove spywarebomb, it on their list.
If it's returning after a couple of days then you should review your downloading habits as antivirus & antispyware programs won't protect you from rogue programs or pups.Due to lack of feedback, I am closing this topic.
