    Hi , i have the same problem as "DAKOTASBABE" ,posted recently.
    Every time i boot up a box appears "microsoft search enhancement pack" file.
    I have sent most of the folders to the recycle bin , but it wont allow me to move or delete "sea port" and "search helper".
    I have also "run" the code that you gave "DAKOTASBABE" and that didnt help either.
    Please help Regards Rob.

    Hi Robbo

    Which Windows version you using, include service pack?
    Are you logged onto Admin account? need to to remove many things properly.
    Do you have Spybot S&D installed? if so disable as it blocks many registry edits.

    Did you do all the things in this link http://blog.tiensivu.com/aaron/arch...at-is-Choice-Guard-and-why-does-it-exist.html ?


    Also what I would do is to save any emails you may wish to keep if you're using WLMail and uninstall all of Windows Live applications and then run this Revo Uninstaller to see if any reminents are left, then
