I have a problem for a few days: a new search bar has
appear under my usual tool bar, and it creates new links
on My Favorites. After some research, I have found that
it was from a program called Lop.com. The matter was I
couldn't delete it from my programms as it not appears
among them, and I could not delete the links from My
Favorites. It opens me pop-up too. So I have just
downlaoded Microsoft AntiSparware and it warned me that
it was a spyware. It deletes it (I thank it for that) but
I still have the unwanted links in my favourite and I
still have pop-up linked to them. How can I get read of
them please?
 
Delete them all, it should be as simple as that.
Did you run the AdAware program as well?
 
I hope you are on SP2.

Have you tried Mcrosoft Antispyware, preferably while
running in safe mode?

1) Update both Microsoft Antispyware and your antivirus
application.

2B)Shut down the computer and turn off the power. Wait for
at least 30 seconds, and then restart the computer in Safe
mode or VGA mode.

3) Do full deep scans with Microsoft Antispyware. Repeat
scanning until a complete scan comes through clean. Ditto
with the antivirus.

This isn't guaranteed, but it works for a great many items
that at first appear not to be cleaned in normal mºde.

Also run in safe mode the updated version of Ad-Aware and
SpyBoot S&D.
