It was probably included in any software that they had you install. Check in Programs and Features and Startup programs to see if it is listed so you can remove it. Comcast taps SupportSoft - Broadband Week 10/08/2002 See Method Three (Run & RunOnce) for the startup area. Startup Programs - Enable or Disable Hope this helps, Shawn |

| | Re: Annoying pop up. It may be that you need to right click the install file and select 'run as administrator'. Older programs not designed for Vista might not want to install even with the Vista 'administrator' login type.

| | RE: Annoying pop up. Do you have Verizon DSL? I had the SupportSoft folder under program files and it's related to the Verizon DSL Help & Support application, which sits in the taskbar tray when installed. I unistalled it with no problems. Verizon DSL installs a lot of software, all of which is useless and not required and some of it is buggy. You can log on to Verizon DSL and the mail server using Window's own internal applications through the network connections and e-mail accounts, all you really need is a username and password. For help you can use the Verizon DSL website.
