I run SpyKiller and found C:\Windows\System a folder caaled CatRoot.
Is this a spyware?

Nope - it is the catalog root folder. You need it.

You don't want to remove that. By the way, you may be interested in this from
the SpyBot site.
"Somehow, a bad link to Spybot-S&D is on its way and leading people to think
that SpyHunter or SpyKiller would be the recommended Spybot-S&D. People
downloading these two are forced to pay to remove spyware, and in the case of
SpyKiller are even directed to us for support!"

Thank you.
Spykiller is even worst than that. I decided to uninstall it. Control
Panel/Add/Remove goes through the whole process of uninstalling but in
reality it only removes the entry from the list - the program is still
active, even after reboot.
To uninstall it I used a very old Win 95 Norton Uninstall. It worked.
