Stupid Specificpop Ads!!!

I have a problem with huge adverts from specificpop, infopop plus others just appearing in webpages. Not popups but actually in the site.

It's really annoying as they take basically the whole screen until you scroll down.

Here is my hijackthis log (some of the stuff doesn't appear as I removed most of the safe stuff):

also try going here and take some of your services out u do not need running http://www.blackviper.com/WinXP/servicecfg.htm it will help u and speed up your pc as well

 

I've got the latest version of Spybot. The only dangerous things it comes up with are cookies.

I've also tried Spyhunter and it comes up with a few registry inconsistencies but since I haven't got the full version it doesn't delete them or make a log.

These are the most sever ones it found (I can't copy the object names and I can't be bothered typing them out ):

Seekseek
Blnet
2 x Downloadware
Sidesearch

If you want the ad-aware scan, just ask.

 

Thats some good advice from Sniper there

REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS: CUT AND PASTED TO SAVE ME TYPING

Open a DOS command prompt windows (from Start->Programs->Accessories), and enter the following commands, for the Remanent variant:

cd "%WinDir%\System"
regsvr32 /u "..\bs3.dll"

Next open the registry (click 'Start', choose 'Run', enter 'regedit'), find the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run, and delete the entry 'BookedSpace' or 'Bsx3' (BS3 variant). OR bsx5 or any bsx5 variant.
Restart the computer and you should be able to delete the 'rem00001.dll', 'bs2.dll' or 'bs3.dll' or 'bsx5.dll' file in the Windows folder.
You can also open the registry and delete the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Remanent or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE_Software\BookedSpace to clean up, if you like.

Your next problem is this
O10 - Unknown file in Winsock LSP: c:\windows\system32\ua_lsp.dll

Please download this and run it just follow the instructions to remove ua_lsp.dll this is a hook for spyware

Thanks a lot. I did what you said. I'm not sure if it's worked just yet but I hope it has. I'll make sure to mention if it ain't worked.

Once again, thanks.
