I'm not sure if this is technically correct, but I treated this thing like the Smitfraud/Quicknavigate/Virtual Maid infections.
My step-sons pc got hit with this on Monday and I followed the Method 1 instructions found here... http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic17258. html/ to remove it.
It took about an hour and involved a lot of scaning and rebooting but I eventually got it all.
I then installed Firefox for him and blocked his access to IE:)
BTW, Mcafee did not do a single thing to stop this from being installed, nor did it give any type of warnings after the fact. I hate Mcafee.

It's not rediculous considering modern warfare. In the old days of WWII it would be acceptable to only armor our "front line" vehicles. Now however, there is no "front line". In a gurrella war, which is what Iraq has basicly become, the front can break out anywhere at anytime, especially in an urban enviroment. Hence the need for all vehicles to be armored.

Scientists fear that the Arctic...
They believe global warming...
The greatest fear is that the Arctic has reached...
Experts believe that such a loss...
The feeling is we are reaching a tipping point...
Anybody see a pattern here? Seems to me like they don't know much of anything. They just have a lot of opinions. Opinions based on 26 years worth of data.
Arctic specialists at the US National Snow and Ice Data Centre at Colorado University, who have documented the gradual loss of polar sea ice since 1978, believe that a more dramatic melt began about four years ago.
Personally, I kinda hope they're right. If the damage is done and irreversible maybe people will stop bitching about it. (not likely)
He (American Mcgee) is 100% correct. Nothing will make a kid want somthing more than telling him/her they can't have it.
Oh, and tell them it's bad for them too... then they really won't want it.
I agree. There isn't any guarantee that pc architecture will even remotly resemble what it is today. Windows 3.0 wasn't announced until 1991, 14 years ago for you non-math people. I wonder if that will run on my current rig....
The end-boss should be the Flying Spaghetti Monster. He/She would just Hadouken you to death with meatballs.

It's not the Government's place to tell it's population what they can, and can't play.
Of course it is! The government is infallible! Bring on the Victory Gin!
and what about the ads ?
Actually, the only ads in Gmail are for... Gmail, and it's telling me to give it away to 42 more people.
Did anyone else notice that this thing is not DX9 compliant and that it lacks 1000mb LAN support? What a POS.
And only a 1.3 megapixel camera? Pfffh.
