[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 426821, member: 176362"] The problem with these bits of software is that they can re-spawn themselves on next boot even if you think you have removed them. Missed dll files run on bootup and put the programme back again [B]A warning [/B]- take backup of any important data / photo files if you use the manual method - buggering around with the registry is a quick way to wreck the operating system if you delete the wrong line! Be aware that system restore will be infected as well so if you have to run restore you will reinfect the computer! [/QUOTE]
