What's MsDirectinput?

The only problems my Spybot can't fix are "Log, MsDirectinput,Windows Explorer". I assume these are normal things. Can anyone explain what they are, esp Ms Directinput. My husband seems to have never heard of it. Thanks.

Chances are .. its spyware that takes over the keyboard / mouse etc.

Download one of these versions

And see if it detects it... make sure you allow it to download the latest web updates before you do a scan.

Thanks very much, KIA. Oh dear, the Msdirectinput has been there for a long time, and I thought it was harmless because the spybot says "no immediate threat". I saw your announcement on free Panda trial version. Will it expire and does it mean I have to remove my Spybot and Mccafee Antivirus and Zonealarm etc before I can install it? But I can't go without these.

Sorry to keep on posting my question here but I'll post my new threads on the new forum, since registering takes time.
