| 217320 | 2004-02-22 01:33:00 | Whenever I turn the computer on I get the following box up which states "invalid backweb application id 1940576". I have run both adware and spybot to try and remove this but nothing works but spybot tells me it is spyware Has anyone heard of this and how do I remove it |

| 217322 | 2004-02-22 01:41:00 | Go here net-integration (www.net-integration.net) read about and get "hijack this". Unzip it to it's own folder then run it. Scan and save a log for posting here. The log can be opened with notepad and the content's posted (copy and paste please) in your new post. ******Do not fix anything****** It's more than likely a reg entry that hasnt been fixed by spybot but run hijack just to be sure.

| 217324 | 2004-02-22 01:57:00 | Backweb is an application used by a variety of software for auto-updating and is also used by Compaq. As already mentioned, it is probably a left over registry entry after the program was removed. To remove it: Start | Run | enter regedit. Go Edit | Find > 1940576.exe Then delete that key. As always, be careful when editing the registry. |
