Have "adtomi", can't kill it

[Matt]

I have adtomi on my computer. MSAS doesn't recognize
it. I had to get another AS to find it. However, no one
can seem to help remove it. No one has a removal tool
and the manual fixes I have seen do not work. (They all
refer to programs and registry keys that I do not have or
are not changed.) Can anyone suggest and help? This
stupid thing is driving me crazy!

If the items it mentions aren't there then you aren't infected. Since
you never bothered to actually mention what were the "other" antispyware
products that you used, no one can help identify if they are rogueware
that deliberately produce false alerts to get you to buy their product
or if it was a false positive (Pestscan, SpySweeper, and some others
*will* produce false positives).

For rogueware, see:

Thanks for the reply, Vanguard. I know I have it because
I keep getting pop-up ads every two minutes. I detected
it using AdAware SE. That program informs me that they
have not developed a removal tool for it. I checked
about 10 other message boards which all had the same
manual removal instructions. Again, those did not work
because I was unable to find the registry keys and
executibles they mentioned.
