A dialogue box called "seeve" appears every time I start up and may contribute to a recent inability to shut down my pc. How can I remove it? I have already run spybot and CW shredder but to no avail!

I'd google for it and if I found nothing of use then remove any references to it in the registry especially any in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
But if your not comfortable with the registry then treat this post as a last resort and make sure you backup first.

I, too, was a victim of seeve. I was able to delete in safe mode, but am not sure what to look for in registry, but did run a registry checker and found no errors. The seeve messed up my drivers. I was able to re-install the video drivers, but the sound drivers are still not functioning. I re-installed the driver, media player, directX with no luck. Made sure speakers were set to correct driver on media player. OS is Windows ME. Any suggestions?

I can remove seeve.exe

Procedure:
1. run C:\WINNT\uninstall.exe
2. remove HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\seeve
3. you can remove seeve.exe by running 1.
4. and remove the files when are updated at a same timestamp.

I'm sorry I'm poor at English.

could you reply this thread.

Eh, 'fraid that's not doing it folks. It just immediately reinstalls the key after you've deleted it. I'ts also been suggested to try Microsot's beta anti-spyware, so I'm going to try that next

Microsoft's beta antispyware worked; although, you still have to manually delete the key, but it stays deleted now

I have Win XP and have tried to follow the above instructions but it doesn't work. Evry time I delete the seeve key from the registry it shows up intantly. I can't figure out how to save the changes to the registry....have tried antispyware and although I get message from same that it is blocking the attempt to reinstall the seeve key by pop64 it remains in the registry. I have also found it in the startup tab of msconfig and tried to uncheck the box it adds a new seeve.exe so now I have one checked and one unchecked. I have found the file path C:\\Windows\seeve.exe but i can't delete the file no authorization. In that same path i found a unstall (not misspelled) but that had no effect when I ran it? Please help?
Sincerely,
Lost at Seeve

I had seeve and how annoying was that!!! Im running win98se so not sure if im in the right place. I was able to remove it for good and it was just a plane fluke.

First...open your computer into DOS

Type: DIR <enter>
Type: DEL SEEVE.exe <enter>
Type: EXIT

Now you are out of DOS

Reboot into Safe Mode

Open Run
Type in regedit

Click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

In the list you will see C: seeve.exe

Delete it

Reboot....

It should be gone FOR GOOD

Now...this worked for me and didnt have any problems with drivers..etc...at all.

Good Luck

Run a free Virus scan at www.trendmicro.com and it should show that it is gone.

Caspereagels, bad English or not, your
link was right on target. I just tried
Hijackthis and it worked. So far, looks like
seeve.exe is gone.

Big Thanks!
