Mark,
they are still being attacked - go here:

I seem to have missed some info.
I can sometimes get an update on shredder but it often tells me I can't connect. Hijackthis now does this all the time.
Could someone please bring me up to date on these problems and outline the solutions - which seem to be going into different sites to get the updates???
Cheers
Basil,
As some of you may have noticed, the primary sites that host the downloads for Hijack This and CWShredder, including Merijn.org, Spywareinfo.com and Tomcoyote.org are currently down due to a Denial of Service attack.
Those sites will hopefully be back up in the near future, but in the interim these files can be downloaded at the following links:
Hijack This v. 1.97.7: http://computercops.biz/zx/phoenix22/hijackthis.zip
CWShredder v. 1.49.0: http://www.computercops.biz/zx/phoenix22/cws.zip
ComputerCops is updated regularly, and uses the same links for each version of the program, so the above links should always hopefully give you the latest version.
