Posted: 7/19/07 at 9:36amI'm having issues with a file named webhelper.dll. I've searched the internet and general consensus indicates it to be a virus or spyware of some sort. Adaware didn't remove it. Mcafee doesn't find it or remove it. But I can find it simply by searching for it. Everything is up to date. I'm running windows XP on an HP. Any thoughts on how to completely remove it?

deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.

Posted: 7/19/07 at 1:13pmNOD32 is a great anti-virus program, and it's free. Also, try going into the registry and removing it there (unless you don't feel that you could do so without harming your computer.)

Posted: 7/19/07 at 11:33pmThanks for all the advice. I finally fixed the problem by opening the Tools menu on Internet Explorer, then clicked on Manage Add-ons and disabled hpWebHelper.
