I have found this Adware in the registry and I have not been able to remove it either in normal mode or safe mode. The Yahoo Antispy software finds it but can not remove it. The exact line is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ENUM\Root\LEGACY_ERSSDD. However I am unable to remove it from the registry. Any advise or tips? Thanks! Miguel
