Anyone experienced this one where it changes all your icons - the file associations with different ones?

Yeah - my virus scanner didn't pickup anything. Maybe it should just pickup Windows as a virus and ask if I want to uninstall :-\

You have eyes and fingers right?....so Im sure if its that much of a pain you can uninstall it yourself Smile

It amuses me the way you complain so much but continue to use M$ products.

'Company policy' rules, and the need to run networked software - our faxing software, mass mailing software and other bits and bobs only work on Win98 machine. I need to find replacements now for XP. Shrug.
