See below.



The first step method works 99.9% of the time. When you start in safe mode, only the most necessary of programs boot up. This makes it easier to remove spyware. You will probably only have 8 or 16 colors on your screen, so stuff may look strange.





If Windows XP is the only operating system installed on your computer, booting into Safe Mode with these instructions.



* If the computer is running, shut down Windows, and then turn off the power

* Wait 30 seconds, and then turn the computer on.

* Start tapping the F8 key. The Windows Advanced Options Menu appears. If you begin tapping the F8 key too soon, some computers display a "keyboard error" message. To resolve this, restart the computer and try again.

* Ensure that the Safe mode option is selected.

* Press Enter. The computer then begins to start in Safe mode.

* When you are finished with all troubleshooting, close all programs and restart the computer as you normally would.



To use the System Configuration Utility method



* Close all open programs.

* Click Start, Run and type MSCONFIG in the box and click OK

* The System Configuration Utility appears, On the BOOT.INI tab, Check the "/SAFEBOOT" option, and then click OK and Restart your computer when prompted.

* The computer restarts in Safe mode.

* Perform the troubleshooting steps for which you are using Safe Mode.

When you are finished with troubleshooting in Safe mode, open MSCONFIG again, on the BOOT.INI tab, uncheck "/SAFEBOOT" and click OK to restart your computer

kadamk,when you are bowing down to g8ter, make sure that pop up is not on your computer screen again. You do not want to accidentally install that stupid program by hitting your head on the keyboard.



Never, ever install any pop up program. That's always a good rule of thumb.



Good job g8er! You obviously saved kadamk there!

Do a search for smitrem on the net .There are pages that explain step by step how to straighten this problem out. I would print out the instructions, because some of the things you have to do are in dos mode.



See if this helps.



It sounds like a smitrem variant to me.



I had a similar problem and this was the ONLY way to remove it.
