Ärende: RazeSpyware
===================
Well, after numerous attempts, (Ad-Aware SE, Adware Away, Spybot S&D,
Pest Patrol, Spyware Doctor, Ewido Security Suite and several suggested
step by step procedures (from various inet sites) I was totally
unsuccessful in removing RazeSpyware (which turns out to ba a desktop
usurper). The last used program (Ewido) removed some 100 >bad< items and
then left the system unbootable.

I finally had to resort to a previous backup (from True Image) of about
two weeks earlier to restore the system to working order. I am sure the
RazeSpyware program was the root or main cause of the problems although
there may have been or probably were other infections. Two teen agers
girl and boy) and a husband that has a propensity to go to online
gaming sites probably caused the problems.

RazeSpyware purports to being a spyware removal program but usurps the
desktop with an ad for itself stating it will clean the system!!! It
offers a free scan but one must purchase the program to clean the
system!  Beware!!!

Thank the Lord for
True Image. It is now set up to do a full backup every Sunday and an
incremental backup every Wednesday and Friday.

On my system I have it setup to do a full back up on Sunday and
incrementals Monday thru Saturday. This repeats until the backup drive
is full, then it deletes the EARLIEST full backup and its
succeeding incrementals, leaving the later backup series intact. I
opted not to upgrade to Ver. 9 - I am running ver. 8 and am completely
satisfied with it. So far, anyhow. :-)
