how do i stop my browser from redirecting to http://lop.com when it cant display a page

Some how my internet explorer and netscape were invaded by a horrible program from http://lop.com where it added in extra favourites and put a lop search flash app on my desktop as well as changing the pagenotavailable page to lops homepage. Somebody please tell me how to stop it. (i have tried adaware)

Well that will teach you for trusting a crack site download(thats how I got it anyway).

Nah just kidding, it got me too. I searched registry and changed only the ie search entry that I found but that didn't help with the rest.

Well its probably about that time to fdisk & reinstall windows anyway!

Good luck.

Got plenty of time? Try working through the steps in the following link.

PLEASE report back if it works or not because I haven't heard of this site and will do more research if you can't fix it.

hi Tim,
I've had the same problem -but it's easy to fix.
Go to this site and under the section of the page entitled: 09 April 2002, there's a link to the program that will uninstall the lop software.

Surprisingly, this is provided by the same people who creted the lop software.

The best defence is GoBack program its saved my bacon a few times when I have been downloading cracks and other not so nice stuff.

Cheers
Ted
