WARNING! LOP.COM
Apparently I somehow downloaded this software (have no fucking idea how) which is from a site called Lop.com
People beware of this site, it uses software to advertise somethings I dont give a shit about with a sort of spyware but is destructive as a virus. It has an "unistall program" which dosent work and is a complete joke. Its not even a proper unistall software, you have to fill out this quiz in order to unistall it. WTF?! Anyways I found this site: http://www.smithpaul.com/docs/articles/lop/ that may help. I havent tried it out yet but I'm just posting this to warn you guys. |
|
ok how do I get rid of this thing? None of the above would work. AARRRGGG!!!!
|
LOP = laugh out proud, today i mean tonite we saw america's cup village and pissed on prada building!

Theres this new shit called XUPITER that is basically the same thing, installs itself as your homepage without prompting, and changes your tool bar etc. All shit I feel should be illegal. Anywho just do a search on LOP AD Remove or something and it should give u some tips. |

Just do a google search for "LOP remove" or something along those lines.

just dl ad-ware from lavasoft and that scans your hdd`s for any progs / files that bring up ads.i had same prob not from that site but some stupid shit that would crash mohaa....ad-ware 5.62 i think i use good prog .. i think i dl it from http://www.cnet.com
|
look in your program files for a folder named LOP. first see if you can delete it (probably wont) then if the contents wont delete, rename the LOP folder to something like "shit" then your browser shouldnt load it biggrin:
i had the same problem with a gay ass program called XUPITER, and TEFS...their just a bunch of shitty search engines with pop ups mad: |
i had something like that once, when i ran adaware i had 250 spyware files. quite annoying.
|
see if http://www.doxdesk.com can offer any kind of help. the page runs a script that detects many forms of "parasites" (ie spyware-adware) and tells you how to uninstall them. it doesnt detect everything but it does detect alot of things. i go there once in a while to make sure im parasite free, and the site has helped me get rid of a few parasites in the past... damn porn sites.

Lop!!! and i thought i was the only one inflicted with this annoying POS!!
i dont know how i got it installed either. everytime a page wont load, instead of going to the error page not found please refresh, thing, it jumps to lop.com and bugs the crap out of me. i am searching google for a removal now... |
Hmm, thats just plain stupid , i say. Why the heck they need to make those kind of programs. oOo:
|
I found a miracle worker. Its a program called "tracks eraser".
Try searching in google for it. |
To prevent stuff like this from happening (programs accessing the net without you knowing, unknown "goast" downloads, etc) you should download and install the firewall program, Zone Alarm.
To get Zone Alarm, goto: http://www.zonelabs.com |
I use norton because for some fucking reason zonealarm wont work on my computer anymore.
|
Do you have the latest version of Zone Alarm, I think a new version came out just a short while ago, maybe try that.
Norton is pretty good, but I only use Norton for anti-virus, and I've had a few problems with it in the past. |
I think I did use the lastest version. I think the only way of making it work again is reformating my computer and I would rather go to hell than reformat my hardrive.
|
Yeah, I know what you mean.
Well, I have no idea why it wouldn't be working. Maybe email the company that makes it and tell them about the problem. eek: |
