Removal tools: List of products that detect/remove/protect against InetSpeak:
  • IM, P2P control, malware prevention and web filtering in single appliance: Unified Security Gateway
  • Category Description: Program that delivers advertisements on your PC.

    Note that many websites have their own advertising, unrelated to adware.

    Adware is any software application in which advertising is displayed while the program is running. The authors of these applications include additional code that delivers the ads, which can be viewed through pop-up windows or through a bar that appears on a computer screen and sometimes through text links or in integrated search results. Adware may or may not track personal information. It may also gather information anonymously or in aggregate only. Users should check the EULA and Privacy policy to ensure if the adware on their machines conforms to their standards.
    Official Description: InetSpeak is a Browser Helper Object that adds a non-removable band of advertising and/or links below the standard IE toolbars.
       
    Manual removal: The DLL responsible for InetSpeak is located in different places depending on variant. In installs from Music Magnet (BHO42602, WindowsIE), it is in the folder you chose to install the software from: by default this is 'C:\Program Files\mm(some numeric date)'.

    In the 'Morpheus Upgrade' release of InetSpeak/WindowsIE, the file is in C:\Windows instead. In the eBoom variant, the file is in the Internet Explorer folder (in C:\Program Files, regardless of whether that is the drive/folder you are using).

    Before you can delete the file you must deregister it using the 'regsvr32 /u' command. Open up a DOS/command prompt window (Start -> Programs -> Accessories), and enter (for the BHO42602 variant):

    cd "%WinDir%\System"
    regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\mm050102\BHO42602.dll"
    For the WindowsIE variant, the commands are:

    cd "%WinDir%\System"
    regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\mm052202\WindowsIE.dll"
    Or, if you have the version that installs into the Windows folder:

    cd "%WinDir%\System"
    regsvr32 /u "C:\Windows\WindowsIE.dll"
    For the Iexplorr variant:

    cd "%WinDir%\System"
    regsvr32 /u "..\iexplorr11.dll"
    For the eBoom variant:

    cd "%WinDir%\System"
    regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\boombar.dll"
    Reset the machine and you should be able to delete the DLL, and the whole mm(number) folder if you have one. You can also delete 'winietoolbar.ini' in the Windows folder to clean up.
