    No, there is no way to remove a specific module of CC. Why not just disable the Fusion Service (AlienFusionService)?

    Oh how do you do that?

    edit: nvm I think I did it, I went to task manager services and found the alienfusionservice, I disabled it and stopped it.

    Noooo.... :( When disabling services or modifying their properties, always use the Services console.

    For Vista: type: SERVICES.MSC into the run command.

    For W7: I believe you can just type SERVICES

    :)

    Yeah - the reason why I suggested going the Run Command route is using the task manager does not always carry changes after a reboot, is not as clean, etc. Always better to use the console. As long as it worked for you - all that matters :)

    It's the same thing, both ways lead to the same svc module.
