Agressive Software installation

I agreed to have some sort of image viewer install into my IE5. Now, whenever, I start it up, I get a frame at the top of my home page displaying an advertisement. when I transfer to somehting else (usually this) it becomes a pop-up window which I can close. I hate it.

I already uninstalled the software that it came with. What can I do now?

Grazi.

Just a WAG biggun …even though you uninstalled, there may be some files left over from that program. Many times the uninstall does not get them all. Try going to start/find/ …type in the name of the program you uninstalled. If any left over files appear clean them up by deleting them.
Hope it works!

Is it GoHip software? If so then

  1. Recovering From GoHip’s “Free Videos From Hell”

In the last issue, I told you how reader Mike Romine had his browser
taken over by GoHip’s “Enhancements.” Many, many other readers wrote
in saying they’d had the same trouble, and some included emails that
showed that GoHip was appending an ad to the bottom of each outgoing
email they sent!

Fortunately, a number or readers also dug out the well-hidden
uninstall instructions buried on the GoHip site. If you’ve been
bitten by this “browser enhancement” and want it off your system,
