Recently ive been getting a lot of popup ads eventhough i have an IE popupkiller. A search bar call "Road Ball Safe" has been installed to my IE as well. I downloaded Spybot S&D and AdAware in hopes of getting rid of this searchbar and the popups.
I ran both and deleted the infected files they came up with. But the problem persisted. SO i downloaded a progam called NoAdware v2.0. It scanned my system and came up with a load of bad files/trojans. Because im only using the unregistered version i have to manually delete the files by going to teh locations it supplied me with, such as
C:\\WINDOWS\System32\wtcpl.cpl
But then there are other locations that are :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\classes\clsid\{8734......7df}
Or even a location as simple as "lop" or "Gator"
How can i delete these files? If they are remote can they be purged?
Thanks alot
