I got hit with Spyaxe and its Trojan cohort 2 days ago.I tried manual and
other removals to no avail.Finally tried this:
http://www.infopackets.com/channels/en/windows/nicks_computer_security/2005/20051220_remove_spyaxe_removal_instructions.htm
It involved a few Demo downloads of Spyware and Malware scanning programs
but it cured my PC with WinXP running.Follow the directions closely.
Been running smoothely and all the System32 registeries are clean now of
Spyaxe foolishness.All needs links to demo programs are included also on
that site.
Hope this helps
WKR
