searchweb2 and LOP problems. pls help

Forums: Computers
Email this Topic • Print this Page

Hello,

ive been having problems with the searchweb2 toolbar, which has annoyingly fixed itself to the top of my IE window, and also changes my homepage, and i also believe it is the source of pop-ups somehow evading my various different blockers. I know that this yuckware was installed with msgplus3, but uninstallation of that program hasnt helped. ive managed to evade these problems by using firefox, but i want all of the spyware rid of.

i frequently run the LOP uninstaller, but the problem always recurs upon a reboot

i have a current and up to date version of Norton antivirus, i frequently run ad-aware and Search&Destroy, and am generally quite careful with surfing and quite knowledgable about computers.

Ive followed all the steps advised in this thread, but im still suffering, maybe someone can help me?
below is the log that highjackthis produced when i ran it; if anyone can help me id be very grateful,

ta, Luke
