    Microsoft guided help. anyone ever tried 'em?

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/915092

    out of curiosity i tried them out. they said that it will install itself, but i haven't found the uninstall in the add/remove list. does this even install itself?

    though they did install it on the c:\program files\ACW anyway to safely remove this?

    probably not worth the trouble of installing
    this looks like its for people new to computers

    hmm... and also, the microsoft article says that it can control tasks on your computer.. security flaw anyone?
