Hardware / Software...

After installing AOL 7.0 (for one day, dont ask)
It obviously wont uninstall, I use uninstall.exe, it deletes self, all files / registry entries stay intact..

Anyway after installing AOL I get alot of BS.

Copy & Paste will not work after some ammount of time.
CTRL + X and CTRL + V wont work sometimes etc etc etc....

Any ideas to remove america offline 7.0 software?
Thanks.

Oh, sometimes my dual optic laser mouse SPINS...

While playing a game it points me down or up and spins me this usually gets me killed...
Any idea with that?

Oh now Internet explorer doesnt like to open new windows, or copy shortcut...

Moved to softwareworld as the first question is to do with software...


My advice here is:

...with regards to your mouse:
I'm guessing you're using a mouse mat with a pattern or picture on it, probably involving red somewhere.
Try using a plain blue one, they work best with optical mice.

Call AOL's support. Be nice. Ask to talk to a tech. Let them lead you through ripping AOL out of your registry.

Get a proper mouse mat, a plain blue one like the one below works well with optical mice. It's also easier on the wrist.

Even a bit of paper may make a difference.

Call 1-800-605-4297

if thats not the Tech support number, I'm sure they can give you the right one, and it also should be a free call ;)

Im in germany, its international, just heard it was over 1 euro to call per minute here...

[RPerry]

there was no Tech support number included with the software CD ? :unsure:

[Acecool]

Not a toll free...
Just like the uninstall.exe left all files intact and all the registry files still in place

[RPerry]

Per chance have you tried re-installing the program and uninstalling again? Possibilty it might work, and Possiblity that AOL dosn't want you rid of their software too, but worth a shot ;)
