You have a few things so let’s try and get rid of the pop ups first.

Please Download Look2Me-Destroyer and save the file to your desktop.

* Print out these instructions and close ALL windows before continuing.
* Double-click Look2Me-Destroyer.exe to run it.
* Put a check next to "Run this program as a task".
* You will receive a message saying "Look2Me-Destroyer will close and re-open in approximately 10 seconds". Click OK.
* When Look2Me-Destroyer re-opens, click the "Scan for L2M button", your desktop icons will disappear, this is normal.
* Once it's done scanning, click the "Remove L2M button".
* You will receive a "Done Scanning message", click OK.
* When completed, you will receive this message: "Done removing infected files! Look2Me-Destroyer will now shutdown your computer", click OK.
* Your computer will then shutdown.
* Turn your computer back on.
* Please post the contents of C:\Look2Me-Destroyer.txt at the end of this fix.

If you receive a message from your firewall about this program accessing the internet please allow it.

If you receive a runtime error '339' please download MSWINSCK.OCX and place it in your C:\Windows\System32 Directory.
