Now since im using a trial version, i cant remove the programme through the software, and an additional scan using Panda antivirus online scan, showed 2 spywares of
1. pcpowerscan.exe
2.Redhotnetworks videox.inf

but a search on the computer did not find the above two files,
i have also deleted the system restore files, thinking maybe the backup had the adware, but the scan still shows the same result.

please help

Download the trial version of Spy Sweeper from Here

Install it using the Standard Install option. (You will be asked for your e-mail address, it is safe to give it. If you receive alerts from your firewall, allow all activities for Spy Sweeper)

You will be prompted to check for updated definitions, please do so.
(This may take several minutes)

Click on Options > Sweep Options and check Sweep all Folders on Selected drives. Check Local Disc C. Under What to Sweep, check every box.

Click on Sweep and allow it to fully scan your system.

When the sweep has finished, click Remove. Click Select All and then Next

Exit Spy Sweeper.

Then run the Panda scan again, and see if it flags anything.
 
downloaded spy sweeper, and ran the full version.
Removed Redhotnetworks videox.inf
couldnt find pcpowerscan.exe
 
yes..only pcpowerscan.exe adware found. Videox has been removed by spysweeper.


EDIT: sorry wrong location specified.

[*]Download the Killbox.

[*]Unzip it to the desktop but do NOT run it yet.

[*]Then please reboot into Safe Mode by restarting your computer and pressing F8 as your computer is booting up. Then select the Safe Mode option.

[*]Once in Safe Mode, please run Killbox.

[*]Click "Delete on Reboot".

[*]Paste the following into the top "Full Path of File to Delete" box.


  • C:\WINDOWS\DOWNLOADED PROGRAM FILES\pcpowerscan.EXE

[*]Click the red-and-white "Delete File".

[*]Click "Yes" at the Delete on Reboot prompt.

[*]Click "No" at the Pending Operations prompt.

Then boot back to normal mode, problem should be gone.
