spybot will zap most of that crap, but one time i had a gay search bar in IE that it wouldnt get rid of... another reason to move to linux...

yeah, just today i ran spybot again, and removed some search180 stuff. but i hadnt noticed it until i restarted my computer and search180 came up saying that a 3rd party removed its files, and asked me if i wanted to reinstall it or remove it completely...
