'DSO Exploit' - Spyware?

kazzer · 2004-11-25 18:56:22

Hi guys, I use Spybot, and it keeps detecting this - no matter how many times I scan and delete it. Anyone know what it is, or do I need Windows patched? BTW Im using XP Home and Firefox. Thanks for your help.

I dont worry about it tbh.

I found an update for it but it wouldnt install. i said SP2 prolly fixed it anyway even tho spybot still picks it up.

No I'm not

Btw, Spybot cannot detect/remove the DSO exploit correctly. If you have a virus checker it will catch any attempts of it being used though.
