When your AdAware finds stuff, deletes it, and it come back again and again you can find the malicious crap hiding with HiJack and whack it. Basically it’s an improved msconfig.
When it’s listed in the log, you can see the ms’m’mgr.exe and d?dplayer.exe* hiding on your computer. These trojans, page hijackers and toolbars are getting more and more intrusive.
