Edge -> IncrediMail - It will not go away! (9/18/2007 8:31:47)

As many may already know, this is some type of Email option offered with Yahoo. I do not know how this process started, but I assume my daughter initiated it. Now I cannot get it to stop [:@]

Our home computer is bombarded with IncrediMail Icons in an attempt to install itself on our machine. As soon as I boot up my computer a box is brought up which, when I cancel, another box informs me that an IncrediMail icon will be placed on my Desktop for me to install later. I do not want IncrediMail now or ever and it is extremely annoying to have to delete the Icon constantly every time I start up my computer.

Plus, I am very suspicious of a program that forces itself on you and does not give you an option to opt out - permanently. This seems malicious to say the least.

Are there any steps I can take to prevent this happening in the future? I have written a complaint to IncrediMail, but I doubt I will get a positive response, or a response at all.

Maybe I can do a system restore that takes me back to a point prior to this issue.

Any help or suggestions would greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Ed

I would also suggest scanning your machine with some anti-spyware programs, Like Ad-Aware or SpyBot Search and Destroy, and to be extra certain you get everything I usually run those scans in safe mode.
