Stupid task bar

Dr.MAD · 07-28-2003

I keep getting this stupid toolbar when I open IE. Even when I uncheck this toolbar by going to view-->toolbars, it keeps coming as soon as I close and reopen IE.
And look at the name of that bar... I don't trust such names. I have this crap since I installed a pop up stopper.
Does someone know how to remove this thing from my machine? (It's that blue bar I want to remove BTW)

Will it not leave when you un-install the pop-up stopper?

I have a brilliant pop-up stopper, I can show you where to get it if you still need one

just choose customise and remove from the toolbar
tho that won't delete it

and look in Add / Remove programs see if you can uninstall it

have you tried Search & Destroy ?

You can also try Adware Plus. It is very good at removing spywares although not as good as Seach & Destroy.

WOW, my HDD was really full of this crap!
I had browser hijackers, porn dialers, SafeNow, and all that rubbish.

Search & Destroy is really great, cuz now all this junk is gone

Thanks for the help guys and girls

Um... One of the files targeted was a Bloodmoon no-cd patch... from here...

Edit: Heh, and every damn Windows operation there is. Even paint. Why the hell would Gates want to know what my most recent paint jobs were?

You know, when surfing on cracking sites, those porn crap are easily installed on your PC without you noticing it.
