IF there is anybody out there that is familiar with a
program named "surebar" could you please send some info
my way to let me know how to get rid of it. I'm just
about positive that it's the reason for this >xtra<
searchbar in my IE on my XP Home. It's listed in "add and
remove programs" with no input on how many MBs it's
taking up. I click on it and choose remove and all it
does is NOTHING. Won't budge at all.
I deleted surebar.dll out of the 'Windows' or
the 'System32' folder (can't remember which one) before
the NOTHING took place. I'm also pretty sure that this is
the reason why I'm getting all of this X-rated popup crap
almost immediately once I touch the internet and why my
whole system is so stagnant most of the time.
I run spybot and adaware right after I see the popup
and Spybot has found about the same 5 things both times
back to back. Four in the registry and a sysupd.exe file
in the 'Windows' folder. It can not get rid of the
sysupd.exe.
I'm believing now that is the root of the problem and
what is keeping this rogue program anchored to my system.
ALSO, there is a way to make the xtra searchbar vanish
from IE, BUT, it always show up again the next time IE is
opened up. When I rt-click in the open space on the
menu bar, in the drop down list there is a check next to
NOTHING. That's right, there is a check, >>Next To
NOTHING<< a blank space (choice) in the list of options.
If I uncheck it, the bar dissapears. But like I said,
when IE is opened up again it's waiting right there.
There's a couple of sites that says to delete some
registry entries to get rid of sysupd.dll but the entries
in which the sites refer to are not in my registry.
If there is ANY known help for me what-so-ever, by all
means ->> please pass it on. THANX N ADVANCE.
