I believe i have found an answer to your POPup problem.
I too was getting the belgiandip popups after going to certain web pages, gotradio.com
was one of them where i was bombarded with popups, browser hijackers, and my cd-rom
drives all popped open. After doing some research i traced all problems back to passthison.com
where they openly admit doing these types of things to convince people to buy spyware
removal tools from their advertisers. Long story short, I spoke to Val Starr, president
of gotradio.com and she had the advertisers removed along with their popup attack
banners. Well they somehow did it again and now i started getting the belgiandip.com
crap. Here is what i noticed:
A program called pup.exe in the c:\prgram files dir was creating a file called over.exe
which in turn was causing popups. After deleting the files i thought i had the problem
solved, WRONG.... Downloaded both spysweeper and adaware and neither one caught this
nasty little bastard. Opened task manager and saw no unusual tasks running. Decided
to reboot, did, upon opening task manager again i noticed this little S.O.B. running
dbcji32o.exe which if right clicked on and properties checked was codenamed totempole
by some idiots called werule. The original filename is pup.exe... created by the
dbcji32o.exe file So i hope this helps you and everyone else out because none of
the spyware tools i tried could find this one.
