But, you do this at your own risk! a.. Remove lop.com step 1: Open the Application Data folder. This can be found inside the Windows folder on Windows 95/98/Me; on Windows 2000 and XP it is inside your user folder in 'Documents and Settings', but it's hidden, so go to Tools-Folder Options-View and turn on 'Show hidden files and folders' to see it. In Windows NT 4.0 it is in the user folder inside 'WinNTProfiles'. b.. The filenames of lop files can vary for each different installation, but usually under Windows there should not be any files inside Application Data (only folders), so it's generally easy to pick out the culprits. c.. You should also delete the following entries if you have them and they are not just blank: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentV ersion\r TelephonyDomainName HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesV xD\r MSTCPDomain HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesT cpip\r ParametersDomain HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesT cpip\r ParametersInterfaces{...check all interfaces...}Domain |
