to stay legal any spyware must have an uninstall feature, however there is no requirement
to make them easy to find or use. look around the page it opens and the page main
page that might be linked to it, the uninstall feature is usualy hidden on the small
print at the bottom of the page, also look in add/remove programs in the windows
control pannel for anything that looks like it may be connected to the popups. if
that dosnt work try creating a hotmail account and useing that to email them demanding
thay provide a tool to uninstall thair crap. do not use your normal email as thay
probably will spam you and keep a copy of all the emails you send them and thay send
you. if thay refuse you may be able to sue them.
