email adverts

[Hamsterman]

I recently installed hotbar and I know its gimmikie but I would like to block it from putting an advert footer on the bottom of my emails. Is there a way round this or is the only option to uninstall hotbar?

The thing causing the advert is - advert.dll

Search for that and delete it.

Also make sure it hasnt wriiten an email signature in your email client.

Try running ADaware also.

If you uninstall via Control Panel and are confident with the registry check for these Keys after uninstall.

HKCU\SOFTWARE\Hotbar
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Hotbar
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\B195B3B3-8A05-11D3-97A4-0004ACA6948E
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent\Post Platform\Hotbar 3.0
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent

CU = current user
LM = local machine
