I did find an advertismen folder with the following (3): REG_S2 one of them has an exe file with an uninstall function. Is it safe to delete the whole thing?
This is the actual path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\currentVersion\uninstall\advertismen\
Since I am not an expert I do not want to delete anything that I do not understand.

Either way, it’s VERY helpful. And I did try the uninstall, but it didn’t do anything as the advertisements were still coming in.

Odd thing was, I couldn’t rename or delete the pushowxx.dll file on my machine. I had to pop in the XP CD and go to the recovery console to manually delete it.
