Lycos Side Search

[Praey]

I've been randomly getting Lycos Side Search results whenever using text input boxes on the internet for a few days now, but I have run 3 adware removal programs and checked my registry and add/remove programs and have found no sign of this thing being on my computer. Did Lycos somehow figure out a way to make this act as a pop-up? If so, does anyone else get it, and if not... what gives?

Praey, I found the solution! here downlead
hijackthis. When you install the program do the scaning, find the O2 BHO Setup.Setup1 file, this is the file that is causing the lycos side search to show up. In the backup deleted the O2 file if you want and the problem is solved.

thanks again to Schadenfroh for all his help. :beer:
