My antispyware program xoftspy removed the virusbuster program and the popups and a few other things all accept this thing in my system tray telling me to download s***. How do i get rid of this manually and were is it located in the registry. Strange as xoftspy got rid of a similar thing before (spywarequake).

"xoftspy" is an antispyware program
"virusbusters"is a spyware program
Now i've made the diferences nice and clear.

Some spyware/antivirus programs take other spyware/AVs installed on your system as malicious programs and hence remove them. The best option for you since your programs are conflicting with each other is to remove one of them and scan with the other.
