damn xupiter search bar help...HELP!!!

http://www.xupiter.com/search2error2.html

can anyone take this site down
my girlfriend was using my puter a few days ago, and clicked "yes" b4 reading a pop up...(yeah i scolded her) and it installed this piece of sh!t program called xupiter tool bar...well i tried everything to delete it...but it wont let me delete a single dll file, even in safe mode..so now everytime i get a "this page cannot be displayed" page, it immediatly forwards itself to the above link, which casuses t2 or 3 pop up ads......how can i banish this damn web site from ever being seen by my eyes again?
oh yeah, i already tried going to tool>internet options>security and have banned this site from being viewed on this computer..but its not working one bit...anyhelp is appreciated..and i mean any
thanks
sam

Spybot Search and Destroy will remove it by deleting a bunch of the files, then running on your next startup to delete that DLL before it's loaded.
