    I have become infected with a trojan / password stealer called " Topig" by Spybot.
    Amazingly it throws up the most realistic of urls and pages on entering ebay.com and paypal.com
    It will not even allow you to proceed in the security area to post a report.
    I can enter ebay.com via ebay.ca or .uk
    ( the ebay,uk has a " safety" area which does not have much except for how wonderful ebay and how they are looking out for you.
    Cultural diffirences I guess - polite - there does not seem to be an area to post problems to ebay.uk.

    Adaware does not spot it.
    AVG is the antivirus I would not exprect it to find it >
    Spybot finds it. Cannot remove. Asks if it can remove at startup. Runs the scan at startup and cannot remove it.
    The trend program cannot find it.
    It places two files in the windows/temp which I have obliterated manually.
    On reboot they are back.
    There is a manual registry repair fix i found on a forum.
    Those lines were not there.
    I tried hjiack this and spotted nothing.
    I tried bazooka and found nothing.
    Any ideas of what next ?
