Hi,
I am seeing this item called Purity Scan on my PC. My investigations have come up empty and I cannot seem to remove this item:( Has this to do with Spy Bot, which I do want on my PC? The Spy Bot support links are all defunct.

Musicollector "Purity Scan" a spyware, linked to another bad guy, "Gator". "ClickSpring/Purity Scan" - Task Manager program is "WINSERVS.EXE"
To remove the program "ClickSpring/Purity Scan" program:
1. Right click on the "Start" Button in your taskbar. 2. Click on "Explore" menu (2nd menu from top). 3. The"Start Menu" folder should be highlighted. 4. Click on "+" sign next to "Programs" folder. 5. Click on "Startup" folder. 6. Remove the "Winservs" entry. 7. Reboot your system.
And you better get Spybot, and Ad-aware to run a full scan for spywares.
