Delete pup.exe and over.exe in your program files directory. Then go into C:\Windows\
and delete another pup.exe from there. If you cannot find that it may be renamed
as something else so anything that has a file size of 64k is potentially it. Go
by it's weird visual basic icon, or check it's properties; company is totempole or
werule. Then go into system32 and find files from the same company and size and
delete them. If it says you can't hold control alt delete and end that program task.
Then you can delete it easily. After that search in your registry for "over.exe"
or "pup.exe" and especially the file you just deleted in system32. Remove those
entries and you are done! No need to scan your computer and waste time like I did.
No need to thank me :D Good Luck
