b0r3d Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Its always a friend that looks up the porn, isnt it? To remove this kind of junk, first try going to Start --> Run ---> msconfigClick the startup tab, and uncheck any programs that look a little suspicious.If that doesnt work, alt + ctrl + del to see if you can find any wierd .exe's floating around in your processes. End task them one at a time and check to see if the bar is gone. If you manage to kill it this way, make sure you search your PC for the .exe file, and delete it.A much simpler way would be to download Adaware6. It's a program that searches your computer for this kind of software, and removes it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 Run a search on the registry for "free porn galleries". And delete anything it finds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
