I ran a panda active scan and the report said I had Brilliant Dig in location HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Interface\{48E59292-9880-11CF-9754-00AA00C00908}
 
I ran a lava soft scan several times to try and get rid of it and the scan never found the adware.
 
 
I also did a HijackThis and again found nothing.
 
Thank you for any assistance

Welcome to the forum jim_simon  Cheesy
 
I suspect this is a False Positive being issued by Panda.  I've got this registry key on my XP-SP2 system and none of my security programs are picking it up as malicious.  These include Norton Antivirus 2005, AdAware SE Plus, Pest Patrol 2005, CounterSpy, SpySweeper and a few others.  
 
If you want to compare registry keys, mine looks like this:
 
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
 
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Interface\{48E59292-9880-11CF-9754-00AA00C00908}]
@="DInetEvents"
 
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Interface\{48E59292-9880-11CF-9754-00AA00C00908}\ProxyStubClsid]
@="{00020420-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}"
 
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Interface\{48E59292-9880-11CF-9754-00AA00C00908}\ProxyStubClsid32]
@="{00020420-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}"
 
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Interface\{48E59292-9880-11CF-9754-00AA00C00908}\TypeLib]
@="{48E59290-9880-11CF-9754-00AA00C00908}"
"Version"="1.0"

Hi siliconman01:
I'm not really sure if it's a false positive. One person on Tech Support Guy solved his problem by doing a system recovery and got rid of Brilliant Dig. http://forums.techguy.org/search.php?searchid=940828
 
I'm an amateur at doing a system recovery and thought maybe there was an easier way. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
