I had the worst time trying to eliminate KeenValue off of one of my clients computers. I tried everything, first add/remove progs, then going into the system and deleting file by file, dll by dll, and still find the annoying little parasite in this system...Currently SpyHunter is searching this system and it found it again, after I thought it had finally been removed, they need to delete this program pronto!!!!
