Windows ME downloads....
Monday, October 18, 2004 by goblet | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I still have Win ME 
and i was wondering if there are any free programs that can give my desktop a new look. Anything that can make my taskbar, start menu, etc. more appealing.

You might want to look at the object bar library and see what you like and then pick the windowblinds that match. No many authors are making object bars anymore so ya might have to settle for some older blinds or miss matched sets.

ObjectBar comes with a theme skin called WindowsXP, one of the styles available is "Use Windowblinds Skin" ....not perfect, but it works pretty good

I know this is off topic but this is the first time in a long time that I've heard that someone had ME still. Most people left ME not too long after trying it. I guess all I have to say is "More power to you" if you haven't had problems with it. 
On topic: I don't know what would run on it, sorry. Try what they said above.

It'll be spyware....you'll need to locate a suitable remover and delete it...

Spybot Search and Destroy is free and very good spy- mal- ad-ware remover and it has several other functions to protect your computer as well. http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html

I figured it was spyware, and i have adaware, which is great, and i have already ran a few tests today, and quarantined an deleted the items, but it still happens. But Thanks AGAIN for the helpful info guys.

The manual approach would be checking to see if there is a remove option in your "add and remove programs", if there is, then you would have to find the folder where the program installed itself and delete anything that is left. After that, you would have to go into your registry and find anything that is part of that program and delete the entries. I wouldn't suggest you to start messing with your registry.
Why aren't you able to download the programs?
Two programs you should be looking at...
Ad-Aware 6 SE (Free)
Search and Destroy (Free)
Either one of these would fix your problem, you should however run both of them. One after another to make sure your system is completely clean.
