I ran free scan of Spydoctor and it identified the program indicated in
subject line of this post. After Googling I determined, among other
options, that I should run Regedit on this Winxp and look in HKLM Software
windows current Run an entry of stcloader but it was not there in the
registry. False positive?

I suppose I will now have to run some other scanners and put in time I just
don't need to spend. Crap! I ran Housecall from TrendMicro yesterday and
it found nothing. Of course, the teens used this computer after school-so
who knows......

Any ideas or experience with this possible Hijacker/tracker?
