SummerSrc,

I don't see anything right off that's could be causing the IBIS detection. The DSO exploits could be false alarms. Can you post back information on what AdAware is reporting as IBIS 'hits'?

Mike.

Mike,

Thanks for you response. 

I could not get rid of the IBIS spyware, later Macafee detected a virus.  I deleted instead of quarantening virus files damageing the operateing system and loseing internet access.   Dell tech support took me through the software repair option.    I recovered, ran spyware and still had IBIS spyware.   I was at a loss.  I went into the safe mode, ran adaware on boot up and have not seen IBIS since !!!!!!

However while Adaware full scan runs clean, SPYBOT still continously finds DSO Exploit 4-6 hits per run.

You may be right on when you said DSO Exploit could be a false alarm.  I am getting reports in similiar format as below.  Their are all in the same registry area, HKEY_USERS.    I checked the DSO box on the exclusion list in SPYBOT's settings and SPYBOT runs error free.

HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-18\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENT VERSION\INTERNET SETTINGS\ZONES\0\1004!=W=3

All,

I found a website that provides a solution to my problem of DSO Exploit occuring every time I run SPYBOT.   I have chose to check disregard "DSO Exploit" on the SPYBOT settings option. 

The link below indicates SPYBOT will hive a fix for this problem on their next release.

Thanks for your help.  I will consider this problem resolved.
