Once and for all, lets get rid of this shirt Gator deal, along with their neighbor,
GAin..and all that dirt. And finally, I found a way to keep it.
Lets see, you have gator, or gain, or gator offer companion in drive C, in the ADD/Remove
windows, right. And when you click on one, they say it has uninstalled successfully,
but you still see the gator eyes spying at you, right? Also, go to Start, then Startup,
and you might see a huge gray box with a "G" letter, right. This is what I did, to
keep the gator out of my computer. This will help you stop getting those pop up windows
as well. And also, this should stop that connecting application window pop up every
time you turn your computer. If any of these is your problems, this is what should
help.
Go into the website CNet.com. They have cool software programs where people
who have purchased these programs, leave their feedback, and so you would have a
good chance of getting something that works. Now, in the search box, upper left,
type in "uninstalled". You should then get a list of software uninstaller programs.
Find the one called Advaced Uninstaller Pro2002 4.0. They give you a 3 week time
to try it for free, but you might want to buy it since its so good. Download that
program, and simply follow the instructions. You will be given about 5 options when
you open this program. Simply click on the first one called uninstall programs..somthing
like that, and it will first give you a list of all the program in your Add/Remove
window. Now check those that you do not want and delete them. BUT..after that close
the program, and exit the internet. Now, click start then control panel, then Add/Delete
programs, like you were normally do any other program. The picture of the gator might
not be there, but read the programs instead listed, and re-locate gator, or gain
or offercompanion, and you will get a message that this program is nolonger in your
system, do u want to delete the picture? and click on yes. Continue deleting the
other pricture if you like, like gatorewallet and those others. After you see this
magic happen, you have 3 weeks or so to decide if you would like to buy the Advanced
Uninstaller Pro2002 4.0 program, which is worth it. Hope this help. If your are satisfy,
pass this messege along. Have a good one.
