Hello Dustin
That did it - ran the scan, but nothing was found - other scanners are still
finding a few things.
Thank you for your help and the offer of trying something new.

If you don't mind me asking, are the other scanners finding cookies, urls
and registry keys? BugHunter doesn't scan for any of those.. Just files..

Hello Dustin
As you thought, the other scanners are indeed finding what your prog does
not scan for - alas :-(

Dustin,

Kind of sad you have to advertise this product here

Maybe its worth downloading & then sending to Symantec/Spybot for analysis &
see if definitions come out against it
