Re: antispyware

Is there an uninstall icon in the Start Menu Program Group, or an uninstall file
in the programs' file folder?

Re: antispyware

You could try running the installer again...... it might have an uninstall
or repair option

Hi Marty

I don't know about Vista, but in XP it's easy enough to uninstall
SuperAntiSpyware by Start, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs,
assuming it shows up in the list. There is no uninstall option from
within the SuperAntiSpyware program itself.

If there are still problems uninstalling SuperAntiSpyware, you may
have had a faulty original installation or something may have got
corrupted - try downloading & installing the latest version (3.9.1008)
over the existing one, and then uninstalling it as described above.

BTW, I've found SuperAntiSpyware pretty good, with good detection and
more frequent updated definitions than most of the competition.
Windows Defender gives real-time protection & is well worth having. I
also run scans with SpyBot Search & Destroy, AVG Anti-Spyware & Ad-
Aware (from Lavasoft: don't be fooled by similar sounding programs).
They are all free and at least as good as the pay-for options like
McAfee in my opinion.

Am no expert, but hope this is of some help.

Jonno
