Help with IE6 Toolbar

[J-spot]

We've all experienced pop-ups and unwanted programs that
self-intstalls themselves while surfing the net. I have a
couple of items in my browser toolbar which have self-
installed during surfing. When I click VIEW, TOOLBARS, I
have the following unwanted programs:

1. Xupiter
2. Adult Links
3. Strip Search.com Bar

Can anybody tell me how to delete these from my hard
drive? I can't find them under CONTROL PANEL, ADD/REMOVE
PROGRAMS.

Please help!

Hi,

First option is to run Ad-Aware scan (www.lavasoftusa.com). If the toolbar
entries are not removed still:

use ToolbarCop:

J-spot,
In addition to removing the parasites, you need to tighten up your security.
