Hi there,

I've read through all of the forums on these boards (fantastic site by the way) and I still seem to be having trouble with midaddle. It's a pernicious little thing as it keeps coming back. I have run a full scan as suggested and it confirms that I have one trojan virus. I have run ad-aware (6.0) and spybot in safe mode without much luck. Any help would be appreciated. I should mention that I am not particularly literate in computers so I may well have missed something.
