Need To Remove "ContentSAFER Wizmax"

    Hi, All

    I recently bought a Samsung mp3 player and installed the utility EmoDio that came with it on my PC. Unfortunately, I didn't realise that that it would install a DRM "ContentSAFER for Wizmax". Though it appears in the Add/Remove Programs panel, it cannot be uninstalled.

    I would appreciate any help from users who could tell me how to remove it permanently. I'm really pissed with Samsung for installing what I can only term as far as I'm concerned malware, as I can't uninstall it! I have already uninstalled EmoDio but "ContentSAFER for Wizmax" is stubbornly resisting my efforts to remove it.

    Can one regedit this DRM out of the PC? If that's possible, where exactly does it reside in the registry? Are there any other ways to remove it? Thanks in advance and I would be grateful for any advice to help resolve this problem.

    I have moved your thread to the software forum as this is not a malware issue. :)

    @iwunderdownunder - Thanks for the link! Really appreciate it. This will teach me to install utilities from Samsung! :(

    @TimW - Sorry, about that, wasn't sure which forum category this was supposed to be in.
