        i had the same problem a few months ago. i did a google search for removal and found steps to remove it and had no problems since. i think there is a file or two in your windows folder you need to delete but i can not remember which ones.

          Add xlime.offeroptimizer.com to your hosts file, and point it to 127.0.0.1 - at least if you can't get rid of it, they wont be able to spy on you. Netstat to make sure there are no other hosts. Oh, and report them to the FTC, they love reports of nasty spyware these days.
