I am getting this pop up every time I open IE, it puts a toolbar under my
address bar. I can get rid of it by clicking on the toolbar and unchecking
"ueeashboomi". Also in the taskbar it has an address starting with "saoe..."
has anybody seen this, or can tell me how to get rid of it, Thanks.

First option is to run Ad-Aware scan (www.lavasoftusa.com). If the toolbar
entries are not removed still,

ToolbarCop:
http://www.angelfire.com/dragon/sramesh2k/utils/ToolbarCop.exe

Manual Procedure:
Start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe)
Go to the following location and check each GUID sub-key. One of which is
the malware toolbar entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions

Also, check here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions
{check the values in the right-pane to identify the malware toolbar.)

Spot the entry and delete the appropriate key (backup the registry first)

Hi Brodie,

To remove it manually go to: Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar

To have it removed automatically, run this edit:

Remove Added IE Toolbar Entries (Line 174)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

Clear Entries from Tools

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Extensions

Select each subkey and look at its MenuText value in the right-hand pane.
When you locate the menu item, delete the entire subkey.

If you don't find the item, do the same search here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions

Remove Button from Tool Bar
Delete ButtonText

For Pro: Start/Run/Gpedit.msc/User Configuration/Windows Settings/Internet
Explorer Mainenance/Browser User Interface. In the right pane double click
Browser Toolbar Customizations/Buttons/Remove.
