be more specific man,......like wat does it exactly do...when it pops up?? wat pops up???

[Kl@w-24]

Go to Windows/Downloaded Program Files/ and view th properties of th Active-X controls installed. Delete th one whose properties list th source as www.naupoint.com. Start regedit and search for 'naupoint' and manually delete all entries related to it. Be sure to backup ur registry before attempting this.

it opens along with IE 6
like google toolbar!

When spybot and adware dont work, you should post your HijackThis logfile.

Hey Kl@w ! i am facin' a similar kinda prblm. whenever i search, a "Side Find" window opens which shows links related to wat i searched for. there's no entry to remove it in the add/remove programs. Wat shud i do ???????????
