Somehow someone (probably my computer illiterate mother) allowed "Power Scan" to be installed on the family PC in the living room. I really dont want to see a porn-sweeper load up every time it boots. Adaware fails to remove it. The windows Add/Remove program utility doesnt show it. I d/l-ed Spybot, and it didnt take care of it either (although, I cant update the defs for Spybot for some reason).
Anyone ever have to deal with this sh!t? It gives you a button to remove the software, but all that does is load an IE window that gets a 404 error. Verrrrrrrrrrry helpful.
BTW, there was a lot of new sh!t adware that was on this PC that I just noticed tonight, and while I got most of it, this wont come out. I mention this just to say that other program's remnants may be affecting this.
PS: I also see a new search bar... how do I disable this from loading in IE 6? If necessary I'll bring home the IE removal tool from work, but I'd prefer to finish screwing around with this tonight.
