CurlyWhirly Posted March 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 Oh well, like I said in a previous post. I will just have to manage without it as I forgot that I can't even uninstall the old version of IE-Spyad as that damn error message comes up :( Time to put this topic to rest I think, but thanks for your help though :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark2 Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 Have you tried double clicking the ie-adsuninst.reg to uninstall the restricted sites ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark2 Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 Now in regedit you should find all the previously restricted sites come up with just the default SZ etcIf so we can download/install iespyad2 which will cover all users or latest iespyad list dated 20/5 :) Crikey, still with me. You must have the patience of a Saintjust stubborn don't like to be beaten :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyWhirly Posted March 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 Now in regedit you should find all the previously restricted sites come up with just the default SZ etcI hate to disappoint you, but those D-WORD values of 4 are still there :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark2 Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 HMMMMMM $*@£$is it definitely HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains that these are appearing in ?I wonder if AOL's software has placed any in there, do you have any other adblocking s/ware ? plan B If you feel up to it we could delete all the sites through regedit and start afresh ?

CurlyWhirly Posted March 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 PC's are weird things, as I just realised that I hadn't given the registry 'fix' time to work and I now have all sites with the D-WORD set to 4 in my restricted sites list, but now they start at 00hq.com (as before) but now end with zzuu.com instead. Before the list ended with www.v61.com :blink: Is this good or bad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark2 Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 this is good I have 4 before 00hg and my last is zzuu.comjust a thought has regedit been open while we've been trying to run this last uninstall ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyWhirly Posted March 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 I wonder if AOL's software has placed any in there, do you have any other adblocking s/ware ?I do use AOL's pop-up blocker, but I can't see how this is going to make differences to registry entries? :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurlyWhirly Posted March 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 I think I am more or less done now as those restricted site entries do indeed have their D-WORDS set to 4, and as you only have a few more entries than me, I think I best close now? I will make a backup though to avoid this saga happening again!Thanks mark2 ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark2 Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 I think we can say now we have IEspyad installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
