I realize your last post indicated "Vearshare" not Bearshare but there is NO reason to post
this query twice !

After you removed BearShare from the Control {anel applet "Add/Remove Software", did you
reboot the PC ?

Also, when doing that it does not remove the bearshare folder. Just check
it to make sure it doesn't contain a file you want, and then delete the
entire folder.

Yes, I re-booted the pc, but still the same. Have run various spyware removal
programs and am not having any luck!
