This is driving me nuts!!!! I have a toolbar called
theSearchMall.com bar. I tried everything,I can't find it
on install/uninstall programs. I used every spyware and
pop up killer I can find, I downloaded every microsoft
update available, I found it in subfolders in the file
search and thought it was deleated but it keeps coming
back. To get rid of it I go to: view> Toolbars, and I
uncheck it, it goes away until I go to a site and then it
is checked again and the toolbar is back. Any Ideas?
Thanks

BTW, if you are still having trouble with this try using hijackthis.exe. Run the program clean any entries that have 'thesearchmall' in them. This worked for me.
