    Re: DSO Exploit - When will PepiMK fix the reappearing problem
    My question (somewhat rhetorical I guess) is when is PepkiMK Software and/or SoftSpy going to fix the problem of DSO Exploit supposedly being fixed, but showing up again and again on the next scan and each additional scan

    They and many people on various message boards say that DSO Exploit is actually being removed during the Scan and showing up on the next Scan is just a glitch (solutions on some boards just discuising the glitch at best)

    PepMK and others say the glitch will be corrected on the next update, BUT THIS CONTENTION HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A VERY LONG TIME, MANY MONTHS OR MORE

    I can't find a Home Page for PepiMK Software when I do a search, so that I can ask them directly, WHAT GIVES ON THIS PROBLEM??

    It's gotten way old. Sorry for being so long winded and non-technical

    If anyone knows how to reach PepiMK Software, by email, url, or phone please advise. I'm tired of wasting time in this and it seems many others are as well

    I would like to get to the bottom of it once and for all

    It seems all that's going on so far is TALK, and as an old friend of mine used to say, this is nothing but MENTAL MATURBA..!

    Well you know!!

    Well, one of the rumors on the net is that the DSO exploit issue was placed in the program intentionally, so that groups that steal spybot's database are easier to identify. That's the rumor, anyway.

    Remember you aren't paying for Spybot, its creators are under no obligation to you to provide anything at all.

    Thanks for the info about the rumor, and thanks for the reminder, that Spybot is a free spyware removal tool

    There may be something to the rumor, I'm sure this would be a fairly simple fix for them if they were motivated to do so

    DSO Exploit; Solution
    Hi,
    I use both AdAware and SpyBot; update them every week with new downloads.
    I have no trouble with SpyBot finding and deleting the DSO stuff. Afterwards, I re-boot. then it's gone.
    It will come back when you visit any website that uses this advertising method; by downloading it again into your computer.
    You can also get rid of it yourself by:
    When you run SpyBot, click on the + sign next to the DSO Exploit.
    Then, write down the pathway in the Registry.
    If you know how to edit the Registry, go to Start/Run, then type in REGEDIT.
    Do a search, or go straight to the pathway, and delete it yourself.
    Best wishes,
    fredg
