I'm new here and need some help PLEASE!!

This post isn't going to be that "fancy" because I'm not very good with computers...yet that is lol. Anyhow, that's part of my problem. My daughter went ahead and tried to download this crap called Incredimail and NOW I can't get rid of it. I've deleted the icons...I went in and uninstalled it but it seems to be embedded everywhere on this computer. Do any of you have any suggestions for me to try. I'm desperate here in Delaware.

Hope to make some new friends.

aloha and welcome. in the great words of the hitchhikers guide, DON'T PANIC. when i first came here i didn't even know how to turn my puter off! ( no seriously, my puter froze one day so i tried to switch it off. i kept pushing the button at the front and nothing happened. i rang a geek and he told me i had to hold it in until the light went out!) i was terrified of everything i did or just happened. the people here not only, with great patience, ironed out my wrinkles, they suggested and recommended a variety of programs and things to make life easier. and some of them are even quite amusing. lol. aloha Laurie

 

HTML should be off.

I've had and know of people who still use Incredimail as their e-mail browser, but if it's not what you want then I guess it's not what you want. Have you been into Add/Remove Programs and deleted it that way, rather than just deleting icons and files in My Computer?

 

We have had a whole slew of posts about removing this particular proggy, I'll have a dig around for you.

 

Here's a thread to start you off

Welcome Three!

 

Thank you EVERYONE for the warm welcome here and for the advice. As soon as I put away my groceries I'm going to give some of them a try. BTW LEV I did already delete this thing from my ADD/REMOVE thingy...

 

Don't take this as sexist, but ladies love to install Incredimail. I have read enough about the troubles trying to remove it, that it is on my list of "DO NOT USE" programs. It may be fun to use but it is a pain in the butt to remove, if you want to. There have been plenty of posts on MG about it and someone will come up with a solution.

Some old threads, may not all be current, as MG might have deleted them, but try
