Firefox stopped workign for me when I installed it...don't know the cure because it was right before I built this new machine.

I think the accelerator is a bum deal already , very unsecure. I haven't checked it out fully , but it works much the same way a proxy would if you used passwords through it ( i.e. unsecure )

Anyone who installs that crap is an idiot.

just read that they stopped the downloads of this program because "the maximum number of users has been reached". Nice way to tell everyone it's crap.

So thanks for telling me I'm an idiot... but how do I get rid of this stuff?

no I didn't miss it but uninstalling is apparently not working for me now is it.

I didn't ahve any problems installing and then uninstalling soon after (had it a couple of days). I didn't have to reboot, I just made sure FF was closed during the uninstall.

You might want to try installing it again, and then uninstall with FF closed down... After that don't reboot just keep working =)
