Deleting "Adware.cdn"

I have ran Adaware on both home and work pc and it has detected a malware
called "Adware.cdn". On my XP pc it was able to remove it. On my Vista pc
it cannot remove it and I cannot find another spyware program that can even
detect it. Any suggestions? Please help. I do have Adaware, Spyware
Doctor, Webroot Spysweeper, Spybot, Spyware Blaster and Macafee Security
Center.

RE: Deleting "Adware.cdn"

Hello Michael ,

Have you try to remove in safe mode (F-8)

Also, doesn't hurt to try (Vista OK) (Free)

yes scan in safe mode.
else use avg anti-spyware or a-squared anti-malware
else see if u can search for the file. then use deletedoctor from
www.diskcleaners com to delete it on reboot.
