I am working on a Windows XP PC that seems to be overrun with spyware. Downloaded AdAware but it won't install. When I double-click on executable, hourglass flashes and thats it. When PC is rebooted executable is gone. This happens for other .exe's also. Tried installing in Normal mode and as Admin in Safe Mode, with same result. Tried manually cleaning up spyware by Add/Remove and stopping process from starting at boot. Ran SFC to see if there were any corrupt system files but that didn't help.
Trying to determine if this is a result of spyware, virus or corrupt windows. Anyone have this problem or know how to fix it?
