ya i use registry mech too, nice program, windows registry is one of the shittest things about the OS, i hope they get rid of ir in favor of a system that doesnt suck in the future versions.
As for the pop up.. dl spy bot s&d and see if it picks it up.. if not its prolly in the IE files or windows system files.. you can delete and reinstall IE easily so you might try that.. just backup your bookmarks.

In win98 and xp (and probably 2k, but not sure) IE is integrated into the file manager shell, and can't be removed without fubarring your OS install.

it just rolls it back to the version installed with your OS...which does the trick in most cases
