180Solutions Problem? / Hijack Log Hi just recently 'Spybot S&D' Keeps finding '180Solutions search assistant' after each start up of PC? I am running 'SUPERantispyware' real time & this says PC is clean of such spyware. I also recently ran Malwarebytes & this also found the PC clean? Would really appreciate any help on how to get rid of this spyware? or is 'Spybot' coming up with a wrong positive?
Thx

run msconfig
Go to statup services
tick hide all the MS items
Untick the ofending startup item, usually obvious google the ones your not sure about. Any adverse effects just repeat the steps re-tick the items, as long as MS items are hidden then you should not have any proplems.
Untick any items you dont want in startup items too, google if your not sure.
usually works, if not your system usually runs faster without a lot of the startup junk not included,
Seemingly uninstalled & reinstalled 'Spybot' with new updates from a different source & the problem disappeared. Just wondered why no other malware detection software picked up on this. Must have been a false positive.
