I replied to you by email already.. you don't even mention your antivirus and from where you have downloaded it... of course we test for virus, with http://www.virustotal.com a web site to check a file for virus with more than 20 antivirus !

I just uninstalled obviousidea Light Image Resizer Version 4.0.4.4 Beta and I do not see this PWS -SpyEye!e Malware anywhere!

I am using Avast 6 AntiVirus and also Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.

Uninstaller seems to be very clean for me :)

If PWS -SpyEye!e Malware is on my computer I don't see it.

Where should I be looking?

thanks to people who voted. I checked the file with virustotal, and obviously we are testing on different computers, no problem so far.
