Dana, you might want to try the utility "Hijack This" It is quite powerful
so be careful or you could eviscerate your system! :) It may find something
the others have not.
Also you could try just doing a serch in the registry and your hard drive
and deleting any keys or files or folders marked specificpop. I would do a
Google search for more info before doing that as it may yield more search
terms.
I suggest this because I have found things that the cleaning tools did not.

Good luck!
Patrick
