TVMedia Removal
Overview:
TVMedia is generally installed by other forms of ad/spyware or the usual driveby
ActiveX installation. It is your basic pop up adware. It collects information
about your browsing and sends it to their main servers which makes it spyware.
It can also download updates and additional programs without your permission.

Unregister DLLs:
Tip: this is only a list of known files/locations. You will want to do a
search by the name of the file to see if they're on your system.
A while back I wrote a guide to
Register/remove DLL or AX
files which you will need if you don't know how to unregister these files.
Each file is in several locations so you'll need to search for them and unregister + delete them in every location you find.
tvmbho.dll
tvmcore.dll
tvmlg.dll
Folders to Remove:
%program files%\tv media
