Download Squad has a post about another tool that might help with cleaning up after a spyware or virus infection. Killbox is a tool that will let you kill anything running on your PC so you can delete the files related to it.

It’s all about making the story more interesting than it really is and inducing panic so that people stay tuned, isn’t it? So, we’ve got newspeople spouting basically whatever comes into their heads as truth, and…
I’ve had my fair share of conversations with HR people who are somehow convinced that I’d be more qualified for their IT job if I had finished my Accounting degree instead of quitting college 15 years ago, regardless of the fact that I’ve been doing exactly what they are looking for someone to do for…
