Nothing says Text in my program files.

Everything on the net says its TopText and Ezula.

Should I download TopText and uninstall it?

Get Ad-aware and Stinger.

Together, these programs protect your computer no matter what. The problem with virus programs is that they try to take down both adware AND viruses.

These two each combat seperately.

Stinger attacks viruses, Ad-aware attacks adware and spam.

Just don't forget to update them as often as you can.

Ed is correct. This is most likely Adware/Spyware which sometimes also contain trojans. Non-heinous!

I deal with it at work since I'm the only person who knows what he's doing on the computer. If it takes too much time/work to clean up the mess, I just format and reinstall windows.

Have fun with your adware.

[wildguy3922]

That's just the problem, I've downloaded 3 types of adware software and it's still on the computer. I've searched up and down on my computer and it isn't disappearing.

I'll try the two programs you said, hopefully it will work.

If anybody has any ideas that'll help, PLEASE POST, I need this off my computer before 11pm tonight, eastern time.

I just tried using both of those several times, and it hasn't changed.

What, what came up on ad-aware? Was it DSSAgent? If so, keep using ad-aware, eventually, it'll disappear (DSSAgent, that is.).

Those two usually do the trick for me.

I just used SpyZooka and it said it located eZula registry keys. It won't let me deleted them without paying $30. I really don't want to pay it because I have a feeling that it won't work once I do it.

[X_marks_the_ed]

Wierd. If it was a registry key, Ad-aware should have knocked it out, wierd.

[wildguy3922]

All right, guys, I really appreciate your help. I had an expert come over and had him go through my system and delete all adware files. I appreciate everyone trying to help me.
