hey,
My friend installed the block checker program from www.block-checker.com
and it keeps pasting ads for it into his Instant Message Conversations and he wants to remove it. HOWEVER:
It won't uninstall.
Is there anyway to manually delete this? bear in mind neither me or my friend are the most intelligent people in the world when it comes to computers lol

:confused: :confused:

thanks for your help in advance x

lol, been there a couple of days ago :o its spreading like butter.

boot into safe mode and search for "block checker" (without quotes) and manually delete anything it finds.


EDIT: i just re installed it to try the safe mode thing, and it works. it may say you cant delete the block checker folder. if it does, open the folder up and delete the files in there, then delete the folder.

This is the log file - only hope someone can help....i have the 'block-checker-xp' icon on my desktop and it won't let me delete it.

Thanks guys in advance
 
no got to block site and download the tool look 4 this

How can I disable the Block Checker tell a friend program?
Block Checker has a powerful fun feature to tell your friends about Block Checker without the headache of telling EACH friend about it. This is how we let other people know about our application. If you wish to remove this function from our software you can do so by downloading this tool (if in the event our uninstaller doesn't work use this to remove it) .

and click tool and it will download

click it on the block site not here
 
That uninstaller is not very thorough. Download Blockrem. Unzip it to the desktop, then boot into safemode and run Blockrem.bat. Follow the instructions on-screen.
 
All you need to do is go to My Computer then local drive (:C) and then program files and look for the folder (block-checker) and delete that whole block-checker folder its wont delete unless you have exited msn and then restart your computer and it will be gone.
