Re: Windows Live family safety filter Trojan horse!

Hi,

Just to add to Stephen's reply, if what you're referring to is that the Windows Live Family
Safety installed on your machine (probably as you installed Messenger or something else), you
can just uninstall it by heading over to the Add or Remove Programs/Programs and Features in
the Control Panel, choosing Windows Live Essentials and then Change/Uninstall (or
Change/Remove).
