How to remove Look2Me - free removal tool

Removing spyware from a computer is becoming an increasingly difficult task. Look2Me adware operates in stealth and displays an excessive amount of pop-up advertisements. Most common are IE pop-up windows, but some pop-ups are tailored by shape and animation. Some of the advertisements push the user to install ErrorGuard or WinFixer

Look2Me hooks into the winlogon process as a notification package. If the user tries to unregister the notification package, it is immediately reinstated. Look2Me also removes the administrator group’s debug privileges and thereby disables the user from interfering. This, along with some other tricks, makes manual removal close to impossible.

For automatic removing use F-Look2Me, free tool from F-Secure.

1. Download f-look2me.zip (last updated April 11th, 2006)
2. Unzip f-look2me.zip
3. Run f-look2me.exe
4. Reboot the machine

F-Look2Me loads itself as a service to gain system privileges. The service renames infected files and patches the adware in memory. It also restores Debug Privileges for group Administrators. F-Look2Me requires administrator rights to run.
