The new Ad-Aware can get rid of lop.com (and other spyware components).
I highly recommend checking it out at http://www.lavasoft.de

Hi David

Possibly lop.com (IIRC). This site is notorious for modifiying registry
settings, plus WWW related files to point to pr0n and other sites of
dubious reputation. Don't go to lop without all scripting etc disabled
in the browser.
