Having the devil of a time trying to remove this root level spyware banner
popping nuisance. No doubt the child clicked yes to the bright letters and
sounds or something like that. Buggers.
Spy Bot and Ad Aware catch it, but won't restart to remove it from memory.
Seems the look2me knows how to OVER-RIDE this function.
So the other option is to stop explorer from my task list, kill the dll's in
windows/system and edit offending keys in reg-edit. Not really working
there. Can't kill Explorer (it's not a running process), can't delete the
key without the key writing itself somewhere else and creating another
pop-up {can't kill explorer}. I deleted the MSGSYS.dll, MSG ***.dll, and
the MSGSYS.EXE.
Didn't do anything. Somebody's burning through whatever karma they got left
in a bad way.
Anyone seen a good fix for this that will work?
I only have WinME, so none of the NT4 2000 XP builds.
I could really use some help.
