    File cure software program.


    I downloaded what was advertised as free software called "File Cure" to allow me to open certain files that I could not get to open. When I tried to use it they said I had to register and pay $29.95 to use the sofware.
    I went to control panel/unistall programs and removed the entry for "file cure". However periodically a window opens showing a list of things that need be fixed and I need to register File Cure and pay to get these things fixed.
    Any suggestions on how to completely remove this software ?

    THE FOLLOWING IS AN EDIT TO THE ABOVE THREAD:
    I was sent a suggestion to download a adware/spyware
    program, i did so to no avail. File cure was not removed by the program I downloaded. Now I am a little confused because the
    email responce I received that suggested a possible fix for the
    file cure problem, also said "There may also be other replies, but you will not receive any more notifications until you visit the fourm again." Now I have the website open but I can find nowhere to see if there are any other responses to my thread.
    I find the term "visit" rather vague. It would more helpful if
    it said what to look for while one is "VISITING". Please help
    me, I am new to this website and am really concerned about
    getting this software off my computer. Thanks in advance for
    any suggestions you have.
