    If u installed msn messanger plus...unistall it and then when you reinstall it make sure you check the box that says you dont want a sponsor.
    It sounds like you have mysearch on ur comp...
    you can also goto the home page of the search engine and there is a prog to dl that will unistall it...you have lop toolbar.
    If none of that works, I have the unistaller for it...somehow I can try to transfeer it to you if u want.

    You have a hijacker called "SearchForIt", a searchbar/homepage hijacker.



    Download hijackthis from http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe

    Open hijackthis and press scan.
    When the scan is completed, press the save log button.
    Copy and paste the contents of the log here.
    Don't fix anything yet, most of what's listed is normal.

    go to "start, run" and type in "msconfig" (without quotes). Click the "startup" tab. You should see a list of files, with checkboxes next to them.

    Uncheck the two files that are in the popup messages: replacesearch.dll SYSsfitb.dll

    Run Pest Patrol.

    pm me if you can't get it

    It completely blows any other spyware/Reg key hijack progs out the window

    Forget Ad Adware, Spybot, Spy Blaster, HTJ etc etc, they suck by comparison
