Have a look in C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files. It might be in there. Otherwise try uninstalling it using add/remove programs.
Hope that helps.

I also had many spywares in my Hard drive but I downloaded a program called "SPYWARE DOCTOR 2.0" and scanned my whole computer. The program showed the name of the spyware and the location of it too. So I just went to the location and deleted manually so it was taken off. For some Spyware, for the location it says multiple. So I couldn't delete those ones. To delete those kinds of skyware, you have to purchase the program from the internet and enter the code so it deletes the spyware completely from your computer.

I think that I fixed all the Spyware programs. I went to google.comn search engine and typed in Spybot-Search&Destroy. Then I downloaded it and also installed it then when I searched for problems, there were around 32 then it was fixed by the program. Think it really helps to delete the spywares.

well, i have all those programs, spybot, spyware doctor, noadware, adaware, ynd none of those programs detect it... i even went into the registry and looked for every entry by 32 Download, but the only thing that hapened was that now the name of the toolbar noesnt appear, but its still there... i actually dont even use IE but just the fact that it is there and that i cant remove is diving me crazy, and i dont want to format because ive just formated, not even 1 month ago so...

I've NEVER run in to a problem that Ad-aware, this virus checker http://housecall.trendmicro.com/housecall/start_corp.asp , and a fresh install of mozilla/firefox couldn't help =)  As long as you monitor your current processes and make sure your startup is clean (run -> msconfig -> startup) you should never have a spyware problem again.

  I know I'm just preaching here, but I can't emphasize enough the benefit of NOT using IE.  Basically the only reason I see people use it for is habit...but any other browser cuts down 100's of the headaches IE causes.

http://www.download.com/.html

I visited the site you linked and I clicked on save but it kept on saying that it has been disconnected from the server. So I couldn't download the program. But I was able to download all the other programs. But I got two nasty dangerous spywares in mine and I couldn't delete it. For others I used the "SPYWARE DOCTOR 2.0" to find the location of them but for these both it said that the location is multiple so I can't do anything. Maybe I should format the whole computer and install the windows XP again. I tried to delete it in many ways but nothing worked. Can someone tell me how to delete it completely........
