Pissed Ie 6

ok some how I got a program installed that added it's self to the menu when I right click on a web page where it normally says zoom in/out document tree etc.. Now it added the option to go to a movie sight, they are expensive and I thought i said NO, but anyway, where in the registry can I find these to remove that option ?
I ran Adware and spybot add remove & and it's still there. Thanks guys and I am running win 98

You could install and run TweakUI and remove it that way.

Hi Don

What about searching the registry with the "Find Next" from the Edit menu of RegEdit? (searching for the exact phrase that's appearing unwanted on your menus, that is)

Sort of a manual Search and Destroy.
Of course, you'd save a copy of the current Registry before having fun.

Ok so all I did to correct this problem was restart in DOS and did scanreg/restore and took it back from 12/10 to 12/06 (before the problem) and so far so good thanks for the help Gary.
