| 361579 | 2005-06-06 11:12:00 | Ok, I've just runnned 'Spybot - Search and Destroy' and it found something called 'WildTangent' in the registry key which I deleted. When I clicked more info it had the following: Company: WildTangent, Inc.

| 361580 | 2005-06-06 15:58:00 | OK . . . . . Confession time for me . . . I had posted the repair for the WT virus and I had used (gulp!) a different user name . I forgot the name and re-registered as who I purport to be now, aka: SurferJoe46 . Anyway . . there is a rather detailed account of how to get rid of this virus under my old username: SurferJoe1946, on this site . :blush: If you like, please search for it under my original, but forgotten username: SurferJoe1946 . |

| 361581 | 2005-06-07 07:03:00 | I've deleted WildTangent using spybot but I saw ZMUXCP in the registry . I tried deleting it but it keeps coming back when switch to another folder and back; or close the registry and reopened it . How can I delete this virus? I do not have Norton Antivirus - is there a way to delete it without using norton antivirus? Also, I found in the windows task manager another unknown program running called 'PACKAGER . EXE' . Is there a way to remove this as well? Thankyou, Michael |
