Has anyone else had experience with this? I had a annoying experience with it at the weekend when looking at Lucy's computer. The damn thing would not uninstall, there is no way of disabling it by the taskbar icon. I tried to delete the entire thing by disabling the processes then deleting the entire directory. It has so many things running that you cannot delete, I managed to cripple the damn thing anyway by disabling what I could disable then delete it. What kind of Anti Virus software actually acts like a damn virus:mad:

It appears that your uninstallation problem isn't confined to her computer.

Yup that's it, the preinstalled pap that asks for you to re-register it but you can't. And the impossible task of uninstalling it:rolleyes:

Looks like it's time to visit the Windows registry!:D
