Removing the new WGA Taskbar Junk

Name: VanillaTruffle 2006-09-16 18:11

As of Sept 16th, the following method worked according to the steps I took, some of which may not be necessary:

1. Deleted LOCAL MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\WgaLogon
and the WGA entries (entirely)
2. In MSCONFIG >> Start in Safe Mode
3. Search c:\windows for "WGA".  Delete all the files that are not locked (WgaLogon.dll should be locked)
4. Restart
5. Still in Safe Mode, using REGEDIT, search for and delete the entire containers for any bunch of keys that contains WgaLogon.dll
6. Restart
7. Double check the changes haven't been remade, then go into MSCONFIG and disable Safe Mode.  Restart
8. Delete C:\Windows\System32\WgaLogon.dll
9. Disable Windowa Automatic Update immediately from the Control Panel

Hope this helps ^^
