I've got this annoying adware on my computer which i found after scanning with norton2004 and ad-aware, but when i try to delete the file it tells me i can't because it's currently running, usually when this happens i just ctrl+alt+delete and close it, but for some reason the adware isn't listed there... the file is 2_0_1browserhelper.dll and is definitely functioning because i keep getting the same damn casino popup over and over argh... does anyone know how i can somehow close the adware so i can delete it?

Did you try booting into safe mode w/o networking and then trying spyware removing software?

EDIT: Beat me to it. :D
