Go to this thread and download the program talked about and run it.

Also at this page, page down to the Homepage HiJackers sections and find LOP.com and then you can download uninstallers for it.

After you do the above go to the page below and download "Start Page Guard" which will prevent hijacking in the future.

It's official. You have Spyware.

Thank you for all the advice on lop. I have removed it now but i thought you might like to know it also affected my MSN messenger and the Windows Medi Player both of which had to be removed and reinstalled, unless this was a coincidence and i had another problem that was cured by the lop removal that i didn't know i had. Again thank you.
