How to get rid of CA Personal Firewall???

Javaslinger · Aug 28, 2009

So my computer says it has 2 firewalls running... Regular Vista firewall and something called CA Personal Firewall.

I suspect the second is causing me some issues so I want to disable and remove it. Trouble is I can't find it! It's not listed in my program files, uninstall lists, and I can find no file folder for it. I did find a folder labeled CA in the Program Data, but there's not uninstall or executable files in it.

Anyone run across this?

Thanks,

Javasligner

Hi

Try Revo uninstaller rist to see if it finds anything, if not then delete that folder CA and then run CCleaner and its Cleaner and Registry tools (run the registry one until noting is listed for removal) then reboot

Then run the steps either myself or Evilfantasy posted here http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=194380 as likely an errant file in the WBEM folder that is causing Windows Security Center to list this extra uninstalled Firewall
