I Can't Believe It

After having my own experience trying to remove it from my computer (which ended in me formatting my C drive), I can't believe anyone would trust this company. What gives them the right to create a program that evades removal? I was so pissed that night I wanted to shoot the people who created this crap.

Re: I Can't Believe It

I was able to eventually remove it. The trick was the internet explorer browser helper object that was installed that was kindly reinfecting my machine everytime you started IE. You know, the one that none of my spyware scanners noticed. Once that was killed I was able to scan through and eliminate the rest, but ouch was it ugly.

Re: I Can't Believe It

These guys ARE scum !! I had a run in with it . No matter what I did I couldn't get rid of it . In desperation I did a Google search for anything on how to uninstall it. Beleive it or not all threads lead back to Aurora's web site . With MUCH hesitation I downloaded their uninstall tool located on their web page. So far it worked . But make damn sure you turn off your system restore before you try it. This will clear all old restores and when you restart system restore you'll have a clean slate to go back to.
