Hi. Stupid me clicked on an unidentified executable that installed itself on my WinME partition. It is that internation porn calling program that claims to only charge you a "small" fee to dial some number. I deleted and uninstalled immediately and scanned my system using Adaware 5.62. However, despite deleting the "Gamble online" icon and everything associated with "fo-download" including all the directories, it still pops up on boot with a window that says "extracting html files" and automatically launches my browser and fetches some ads.
I have gone through the entire registry, startup folder, win.ini, system.ini, autoexec.bat and config.sys and anything else I can think of to get rid of it. I suspect it's embedded itself in one of the OS's dll or something. It only pops up after boot and logging onto windows. Hitting cnt-alt-del when the window appears reveals "winoldap" so it's rather difficult trying to pinpoint the exact file and delete it.
Does anyone know how to delete this beast? Thanks.
