DuaneWSUP and WTOOLSA are hijacking software. You need to get and RUN an anti-spyware program even though these are know to stop you from accessing anti-spyware sites.
You could start with Microsoft Anti-Spyware Beta but you will need to be on Windows 2000 or XP. You can get it here.... http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx
As to the "L" problem, it sounds like someone has remapped your keyboard. They problems could be related.Thanks for repLying gussery.... I do have anti-spy from adeLphia ... the program runs, untiL about 58 % and just stops. the fiLes it finds I deLete but I am assuming because it isn't finnishing it is not getting the ones that are affecting me, couLd this be right ?... I am running ME so the other option is not an option I guess.
Thanks for the input !
Duanewhat program are you running......?try spysweeper from webroot.com type msconfig in the run box .....and chose selective start upPicked this up off the net by Googling for WTOOLSA
"Before you download anything to try and remove these programs quickly check 'add/remove programs' for 'Win-Tools'. Removing the program will take care of the problem."
Then see if you can download SpyBot SD, AdAware SE, and SpywareBlaster. Install, update and scan.
