The URL above is for the inetadpt.dll entry.......spy/adware.
http://www.pestpatrol.com/PestInfo/b/backdoor_vb_bw.asp
The above is for the bw.exe entry.
Have you updated your Adaware and Spybot?  Suggest you get HijackThis! as
well, just do a Google search for download locations.

Well, that didn't print very well............

All of the cookies, if you look closely, starting with the first one, I put
'disposable' next to it and then there is (") a ditto mark under the others.
Sorry about that, it looked good when I sent it.
                       Heirloom, old and hate it when it gets rearranged

Just remember it is a lot easier to keep the junk out of your computer than
it is to remove it.   A must have AV, good spyware/adware apps,
anti-hijackers, firewall, HOSTS file, just to name a few.   As Figgy would
say, practice safe hex.
                   Glad you're doing better,
                               Heirloom, old and getting tired

how to remedy the situation:
