Have already tried Ad-Aware which hasn't as yet got rid of "i-lookup" which is hi-jacking my browser in a real bad way!!!

I would have to say do NOT purchase SpyFerret. OnlinePCFix who produce it are currently being sued over the product as it contains several sections which have been hacked from other programs.
The main program that it is based on is a free download located
here. The program is called SpyBot and is one of the best programs you can use for this purpose.
Although no spy-ware removal program can be 100%, this one seems to do the best.
And yes it removes I-Lookup.
Also, when your system is clear, be careful of what you download and install. Especially programs such as Gator and the options you select in programs like RealPlayer and Quicktime so you don't enable any monitoring programs.
