How can I rid my XP of programs which imbed themselves so
cleverly they don't show up in add remove? Those such as
popup killers which sit in the system tray and can't be
stopped or deleted? They are just as bad as the pop-ups
they're supposed to stop!
 
Easiest way is to find the folders if you can and delete them and/or search
for them in the registry and delete them there.
 
If you know what the program is called then you could go
into task manager and stop the process then go into
msconfig and if its in the start list which it sounds if
it is then untick it to stop it starting, and follow the
address in that list to find the .exe or search for it in
explorer and delete it if it wont then log on in safe
mode as administrator to delete it.
