Hi,

My Zone Alarm first inform me that the above program is trying to connect to internet. I refused the connection.

Since Then, my ad-watch program is telling me about a registry modification every 30 seconds.

What can I do?

thank you for your help.

Remove it from the ZA program list and see what happens.
I remove it. The ZA ask me again if i want the program to connect to internet. I stil deny this access.

Ad-watch still continue to advise me of a registry modification detected every 30 seconds.
Go to http://tomcoyote.org/hjt/ and download HiJackThis. Use Winzip to unzip it, then install and run it. To run, click the “Scan” button. When it's done the "Scan" button changes to "Save Log". Save the log file it creates (it should open in Notepad at that point). Copy and paste the results in your next post. IF you happen to be using a proxy server, please mention it in your post. Most of what it finds is harmless, so do not do anything yet. Someone will be glad to help you sort out any of the baddies that may be in there.
What exacatly does Hi Jack this do?
HiJack This shows browser home and search page hijacks, hence it's name. But it goes on to show BHO's toolbars that have spyware or adware attached to them.

It also lists all the programs that run at start up. Since much bloteware and spyware, virus, trojans and so on all want to be running when you first start your PC, it becomes a powerful tool in helping us spot anything in the way of spyware, virii and so on, on your computer.
I'm gonna have to go get it and play with it. Thanks!
Look over in the security forum and you will see a lot of HJT logs posted.

BTW, what part of Chicago?

hi Luc
Nice to see a fellow Canadian in the forum

Please do a scan using your AA6 Plus or Professional version as per these instructions:
http://forums.techguy.org/t164245/s0a063c8e42e774d467619d00dcbcffd8.html

You can post a AA6 log file for review.
Hi normmork,

This is the scan you ask. I simply put one file under my ignore list in aa6 because if i removed it, my Kazaa doesn't work. Thank you for your help (that's include NiteHawk) because this problem is getting on my nerve and I hope than i will get out of this with less arm than Beamer_nm.

Terminate IAMSAD.EXE in Task Manager and delete C:\WINDOWS\System32\IAMSAD.EXE file.
Sorry Top Banana,

I taugh I did everything the first time but i forgot to delete the system32/IAMSAD.EXE

So, I do it again but this time deleting the IAMSAD.exe file and everything is now ok.

Thanks to you and to all

But, can you tell me how did you select the good line in the hijackthis program?

Were this IAMSAD.exe came from?
If you want to keep on using Kazaa uninstall it and run an AA6 scan and remove all the objects then reinstall Kazaa.

Kazaa places a lot of objects of your PC including P2Pnetworking and Bull dog A/V.

Try a clean alternative Winmx or Shareaza

You will be constantly finding objects on your machine and Ad-watch in use warning or preventing these objects from being installed.

PLase amke sure when run a scan and remove objects follow the instructiond found here http://forums.techguy.org/t164245/s.html
From some slim clues - it appears to be a variant of the w32.spybot worm.
