I had this nasty little piece of software on my home PC. This is how I got rid of it!

From LOP customer services:

Dear Sir or Madam:

In the terms and conditions of any of our software products it is clearly stated that we grant you a free license to use the software and by installing the software on your computer you agree to use our search services in your web browser. Any and all changes made to your system are clearly stated in the terms and conditions and are fully un-installable via the Add-and-Remove Programs option available from the Windows Start Menu--Settings--Control Panel--Add/Remove Programs.

In the 'Add / Remove Programs' list, look for 'Window Search', 'Window Searching', 'Lop.com', 'LOP SEARCH', 'Browser Enhancer', or 'Ultimate Browser Enhancer' from the menu to run the uninstaller.

If you've tried the above steps and the uninstall is still unsuccessful, try disabling your anti-virus software, Ad-aware, Sophos, and other programs of that nature. Re-download the uninstaller, then run it. Ad-aware et al seem to interfere with the uninstall process. If disabling that software allows you to run our uninstaller successfully, please tell us or email the software company in question and tell them they need to fix their software.

- Additionally a separate uninstall program may be downloaded here:

http://lop.com/new_uninstall.exe

This is a new universal uninstaller and will remove any components, such as the toolbar.

If none of these suggestions solve the problem, try reinstalling the LOP software, then running the uninstall again.

Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance,

Lop.com Customer Service

Thanks mjbayley <_<

Although it seems like an easy fix, we don't recommend using the uninstaller provided by the publisher. Why? Becasue. they often can't be trusted. Sometimes they just hide the spyware further, other times they may actually install more spyware.
