hiya!
havent tried this yet, but you should be able to go in thru the registry and delete
the offender. read here: http://www.jsiinc.com/SUBJ/tip4600/rh4660.htm to get started...
also i believe you can just go into your services config
(my computer, manage, services) and just disable the service being called by svchost,
providing you know the name of the LOP service. that way you just disable the service
instead of uninstalling it, thereby potentially tricking the re-installation routine
into thinking that it isnt necessary to perform the re-install! if ya cant beat ém,
ambush they ass in the alley...it would help to know which OS you have on your box,
but since you didnt say i am guessing xp or 2k...
