I kept on getting that Look2Me ad too, after i installed this accelerator, but what i did was i uninstalled it. It says it right on the pop up thing, when it comes up next you can uninstall it or whatever u want to do, since it was a program that u posted...

edit: sry i didn't answer your question tho

Yes I agree Dapadipz. Both Spybot Search & Destroy and AAW6 b181 are MUSTS! I also use the Immunize feature in SSD, pretty cool. Another program I use (it's very passive & uses no sys resources) is SpywareBlaster (freeware from Wilders Security).
