O.P. I still can't get rid of this toolbar!
Today, I honestly went through the stupid tutorial at least 5 times. Installing and checking off, then uninstalling, rebooting, repeating. Plus isn't even installed, I'm still stuck with this stupid toolbar! And harmless my butt, it sends me popups despite my blocker and changes my opening explorer page. I've even made an account for this forum as a last resort. Can someone PLEASE help me get rid of this thing?!

Are you sure it's the toolbar installed by the messenger plus sponsor program?

If it is, there is an alternative installer that you can use.....

If this is the toolbar from Messenger Plus!, then try and use this

http://www.lop.com/new_uninstall.exe
I'm on: Twitter, Facebook, and Neowin

It's blue and it's a search bar. Is that it?


I tried the lop.com uninstaller.. doesn't work.


It looks like this:

My friend said it was from Plus. I didn't get it until I downloaded Plus, so I don't know. You tell me.

I'm sorry to bother everyone again.. but.
Neither of those links worked.
(I mean. I did what it said, and they didn't remove it.)
I don't think I'll ever get rid of this toolbar.
Nothing is catching it. :'(

The makers of the toolbar are currently updating the toolbar, to make it a lot more useful, it may be temporarily unstable...Blade reported similar problems...

I'm not sure if that's a good idea; in the past adware removers have screwed up the toolbar and made it harder to remove...

Maybe it's not the lop.com one but a lookalike
