I would need some more information to help you:  What do you mean by
"remove"? Where do you find 2002by89.com? Which operating system do
you have?  If that's the address of a web site, how is it showing up
on  your computer?  Which browser are you using?

Thanks!

From what you have stated in your question, it sounds like the website
in question has done something to "take over" your computer, such as
set it to your homepage, or install some sort of advertising on your
computer. Is this the case? Can you give us any additional
information?

I think before anyone can answer you accurately, you'll need to
provide a little more information about your computer. For instance,
are you using Windows? If so, what version (95, 98, 2000, ME, XP)?
Given that about 95% of computers are on Windows, I think all you need
to know is that you can open a program called "File Manager" find the
objectionable file and highlight it by clicking on it, and then press
DELETE. It may ask you for confirmation of this action, and so if you
are sure, just click YES.

I'm not familiar with the file you mention, and what other
objectionable material you might be trying to remove. Be aware though
that more people mess up their computers by deleting files that they
THINK they don't need than probably by any other method.
