Hi,
for anyone who may have forgot try a system restore. Its probably best to try and remove it by hand first but if all else fails a system restore should work. I recommend you then delete all the old restore points afterwards (by turning off system restore) and then create a new restore point.

I moved the wbeconm.dll to the desktop but was unable to kill the mssearchnet.exe process & the annoying pop up still kept appearing in the system tray despite numerous restarts. However when switching on yesterday (after leaving overnight) & following the automatic update for AVG Antivirus the pop stopped & various files were transferred to the Virus Vault of AVG. Adaware & Spybot were then used to remove spyware. This seems to have done the trick although not sure whether this was AVG alone or in conjunction with the moving of wbeconm.dll to the desktop. Hope this helps someone!

Hi,
I followed the instructions as mentioned by guest 8 and 10 and managed to eventually get rid thing!! However a small typo on the manual removal instructions, webconm.dll should read wbeconm.dll.

i just found out i also have Spywarestrike and its the same as spyaxe but cant remove it
69. by Guest. 2006-01-06 18:01:48
Infected with spywarestrike today.Spent all day trying to remove it without success. The above does not work as not all of the files listed are installed. Main problem is the constant pop up syaing a System Intrusion has been detected.
70. by Guest. 2006-01-07 01:01:17
I have had this on my pc sense Jan 3, I have tried all of the above and so far nothing is removing it. It started out as Spyaxe now it is Spystriker.
71. by Guest. 2006-01-07 17:01:56
Thanks for all your help. I used some of your ways to get rid of SPYAXE. People can also try removing the SPYAXE installer which can be found in C:/Windows/Temp. Search the Temp folder for the SPYAXE installer. Once you get into the temp folder right click go to arrange icons and arrange them under modified and scroll all the way down and look for any files hidden in the temp folder that were created on the day and time you recieved SPYAXE.
72. by Guest. 2006-01-07 17:01:41
The installers for SPYAXE and SPYWARESTRIKE were found in the TEMP folder in WINDOWS.

I located a fille named netwrap.dll and moved it to my desktop. The file will not allow me to delete. Any ideas? When I moved this file to my desktop that pest at the right bottom of the screen disappeared.
74. by Guest. 2006-01-08 00:01:59
I did the same thing by moving the netwrap.dll file to the desktop. Right click on it and change its name. Make it a word file then reboot the computer and then you should be able to delete.

I used the uninstall tool under C:programfilesSpyAxe, then botted up in safe mode and followed the manual instructions above. Most reg items were not found, sorry I did not list whcih ones I did find and remove. I did find and remove a couple of the .exe and .dll files, again i did not make a list, sorry. Found and deleted all directories except C:WindowsSystem1024 ( could not find ). Then I ran Spybot and Ad-Aware in safe mode. Spybot found nothing, and Ad-aware found one more SpyAxe related entry and succesfully removed it. Rebooted normally and so far SPYAXE IS GONE!!!! No popups in the tray (as of yet) I will keep my fingers crossed. I hope this works for you. I have been battling this since 12-27. P.S. anyone know if these popular anti spy-ad-malware programms will include definitions to all the sneaky little hidden files this malware produces? Are they aware of it?

Hi all, after spending 2 days trying various software etc, i finally got shot of spyaxe by doing as someone suggested. I located a fille named netwrap.dll and moved it to my desktop, renamed it, rebooted and deleted it. THANKYOU for all your help
77. by Guest. 2006-01-09 13:01:35
I had SpyAxe.exe, got rid of it and now I have Spywar Strike, which is exactly the same thing with a different name. Does anyone know of a fix for this new one??
78. by Guest. 2006-01-09 17:01:22
Well I have SpyAxe trojan virus and am currently downloading the software to remove it. I have Ad-Aware and I have AVG also running internet explorer, aol explorer and am downloading firefox. I have reset the system, rebooted, debugged, and scanned for about three days. I hope that this software does the trick I have even deleted my user accounts on the computer and renamed and rebuilt them all. Thanks for the support and may God Bless all of us. Thanks again.

I gotSpyAxed back on 12/30. I found in my research that the company is using multiple IPs. After doing a System Restore, I blocked the following IPs, using IE "Restricted Sites" under the security tab; in the form of:
80.77.8x.0-255*
80.77.9x.0-255*
where x= digits 0-9.
20 entries (a pain), but I have had NO Spyaxe, SpyStar or Spy-anything since.
80. by Guest. 2006-01-10 14:01:49
The best way I have found to get rid of this crap is to use an "offline" tool such as ERD commander. Because you accesses your drive without Windows running, you do not have to worry about locked or running processes. Just delete the registry entries and files.
