Actually, no. I didn't get anything. But I don't think that's our problem. You see, the reason I posted the topic as "Notify .dll Hijacker" is because I'm 99% sure thats the correct identification. Look2me is a spyware is it not? I've checked several different ways of killing look2me and tried to do them only it seems as if I don't even have the files needed to be deleted. I then earliar before posting this topic checked with "AdWare Away" which found no instances of look2me(I checked specifically for look2me, there's an option) but rather the "Notify .dll Hijacker", "The hardest-to-kill hijacker yet, unable to be automatically removed". I originally got Adware Away to check for that specific hijacker, because programs like Lavasofts's Adaware and Spybot S&D, and Norton Antivirus don't even register it. The popups that appear do appear regardless of wheter I'm already connected to a browser or not, as long as the connection is existant(broadband) then the popups will appear. Adware Away asks that you write to them for specific instructions on how to remove it, it can only be done manually, and the reason I posted here was to avoid doing that. Thanks again, If anyone knows how to deal with it, it would be appreciated.

Oh and here's the url to Adware Away's description http://www.adwareaway.com/notifydll.htm
