you could try to find all of the files on your computer and delete them. Usually there is a main file for spyware programs like this. You could also try using spybot searh and destroy.

used spybot search and destroy and it doesnt find it either. how can i find the folder it is in? ive searched for LOP and nothing comes up.

First of all could you click Start>Settings>Control Panel>Add or Remove Programs and uninstall 'Window Search', 'Window Searching', 'Lop.com', 'LOP SEARCH', 'Browser Enhancer', or 'Ultimate Browser Enhancer' if listed. You may be given a code to insert, do so and reboot when done. If not listed there, run this uninstaller:
