Groove.x32 Adware.ezula

I posted this in the thread about Ezula but got no response so I thought I would try a fresh thread.

I have just had norton antivirus find Adware.Ezula it looks like it is linked to macromedia . I cant find Ezulu or TopText in the uninstall menu and though norton recomends to delete it . It fails to do so each time. Then it asks me if I would ignore it in future scans . I have scanned my computer with spybot , microsoft antispyware , ad-aware and spy hunter and none of these have detected it. I have also read that there might be legal implcations and that the installing program may no longer work. should I just let norton ignore this ?( I have found the file that norton is showing as adware.ezula it is in the macromedia shockwave folder under The groovealliance it is groove.x32 what is it ?)

Hello Lgt1,

I have experienced the same identical problem. I was wondering if you or anyone else has found an answer.

Thanks for your input

Not being able to find much info on the groove alliance other than it has to do with some online gameing and and advertising games for companies I deleted the whole groove aliance file and now norton is happy. The thing I cant figure out is that the files in question had been created back in november . But Norton did not find anything till just the other day?

Lgt1,
I would not ignore it if I were you. I had similar problem (see my posts below). It seems this could lead to other ad-programs and spy programs sneaking into your system. I was able to get rid of ezula, but since then I have constant problems with other program such as Troj_Qlogic.a, isearch, web-redirect programs, etc..

Do what you can to keep your system clean

See my postings/replies on how to get rid of ezula.

Good luck.

Tonyl
