My friend got the program called MediaGet with a download for a Fingerprint-Driver. His problem is that MediaGet works and starts in the background. He can’t find it in his program-list (start – program and then all programs) and also he can’t find it in the system-list to uninstall. The running Version of Media Get is 2.01. He doesn’t want it, he has tried all ways to delete it but, it says that it is running and has to be closed first. However, he can’t do anything with it let along closing it.

Same here. I scan it once and fixed it, then scan it again right away, the same 6 entries showed up. In the registry it shows the directory of the MediaGet2 but when going there directly I can’t find it. Could that be a bug in the Spybot that does not clean the old registry information on its own?
