Remove Program through the control panel usually works for everything...

However if you've already deleted the files...

I wonder if it will be friends with me?

And the rest, after a sudden wet thud, was silence.

miNus's guide to formatting!


  1. Copy all important files to another hard drive, network drive, or CD's.

  2. Create a bootable floppy disk (at command prompt: format a: /s) if you have Windows ME or below. If you have Windows 2000 or Windows XP, don't worry, the installation CD's are bootable.

  3. For Windows ME or below, boot up with your disk, and type: format c: /s
    For Windows 2000 or Windows XP, just boot up with the installation CD and select the option to format the drive.

  4. Install operating system of your choice. (A wise idea right about now would be to switch over to 2K or XP if you haven't done so already!!!)

  5. Copy your saved files back over (make sure you don't copy PROGRAMS, that won't work, only FILES - you will have to reinstall any programs).

And... I'm spent.

Good luck!

Correction to previously listed item:

and i would switch to linux (i really want to try it) but theres 2 things
1.) this is my family's computer. they dont know what linux is. 'nuff said.
2.) i tried installing RedHat on a box at work over the summer, but i couldnt figure out what to do, and the mouse was all funky.

My only suggestion is to stop it from starting when windows comes up. Check the major culprits: Startup folder, and the Run key in regedit.

Run regedit, HKey_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run

Delete anything in that key that looks like it would start Bonzai Monkey Fuck or whatever it is. It's not gone, but at least it's not starting. Then again, if it's an IE plugin, you may be screwed.
