Firstly, Welcome to Landzdown :D


So do you have the latest version of Ad-aware definition file?

I think the decision has been made -- we'll continue this at CARMA since that is where the original help began.  The threads are being closed at all the other sites to avoid confusion:

I recommend that you only reply in one forum as by posting topics in a few forums you are only slowing down any help that you get and also it can cause confustion to alltrying to help you,
we all post at each others forums so it would be wise to post in just the one and as you have already started.

cska133,
it is up to you where you go to post but as you have already started getting advise at Carma and I recommend strongly that you follow any advice given there.

cska133, I have already consulted with Steve Jackson from Lavasoft about your problem.  Please see your thread at CARMA.
