spyware doctor 6.0 missed these even though up to date

i thought the active protection would pick up these even if it didnt have the definitions for them

symptoms
pop up message about spyware infection that takes you to a download for windefender

browser highjacks when click on a link from google/yahoo

pop up messages about porno videos

had to use combo fix to clean rig off

i added what combofix found

You might want to consider running either ThreatFire or Behavior Guard (not both) for added protection.
