Help with a download called Mirar?

Archived in the category: popup plus
Posted by Kristen Meyers on 24 Feb 09 -

Okay my dad downloaded Mirar to try and play a song but it didn't work. Plus, Mirar must have put in some kind of pop up bug because popups are getting through the google popup blocker. I have spybot and ad-aware, and both found some sort of bugs. The spybot found the Mirar bug and got rid of it but the popups are still happening. What can i do to get rid of them?
okay so i did the first response i got and downloaded XoftSpySe to get rid of the mirar stuff. It wants 40 bucks to give me a password. Any other way to get rid of the stuff?

Mirar (MirarToolbar) is a malicious toolbar which shows advertisements related to what computer user is viewing. After installing on your computer, Mirar Toolbar gathers what URLs you are visiting, and what search terms you used so it can show ads based on that information. Mirar toolbar can install other adware programs and it is hard to get rid of this malware. Mirar toolbar can slow your internet connection, so we recomend to remove this application from your computer.

Don't pay for removal.
This program is totally free and highly recommended..

Use the Superantispyware link in the answer below to download, install, Update and run.

Once again it's:
http://www.superantispyware.com

Once on the site, select to download it using the Blue download box that says Free Version Home Users- Keep in mind that this program will NOT ask for money to remove malicious files and the program is totally yours to keep, update, and use on a regular basis. It's use 3 times a week is highly recommended.

Don't buy the $40 junk.

Spybot should tell you the exact files or registry keys.

A good start is Run > MsConfig. You uncheck SERVICES and programs that load at boot.
