CWS blocked all of my secure sites. A Microsoft tech at the 800 number told me what it was and how to get rid of it. It took about a half an hour with him, and then another two hours to do a complete scan with spybot, norton, and clean disc security before it was clean. We also notified the bank and visa. All in all, a real pain in the a**..

BTW, what sites are you hitting to come up with these spyware attachments or are they by email attachments? Next time create a Limited user. Spyware does not become a problem when it does not have permission to install. Start > Control Panel > User Accounts > Create Account > Limited.
