I just downloaded Bulletproofsoft out of 3 spyware programs it was the only one that was able to detect it and remove it. :)

After hours of trying to remove ShopNav shit from over taking my computer I am happy to share a Company that offers a free trial SpyWare removal that works! I may even buy it as they earned my business. http://www.bulletproofsoft.com/
Even ShopNavs web site offers a uninstall that does not work! It probably plants more parasites on your computer!
ShopNav your days are numbered!
Happy killing of this parasite to fellow upset victims.

We need to take legal action against this type of thing. I am contacting Florida'a Attorney General. Unfortunately, I haven't found what state that Shop Nav is in so I could state a class action suit. I will start one. Stay posted for an update

Can we start a lawsuit against Mike Thompson?

Thanks Mexicano. Spybot seems to have done the trick. I've had this problem for over a year now and it is just infuriating. I hope more people send complaints too. You can report them to the FCC since they do not offer a working uninstaller which is required by law.

Go to Shareware.com, download ACE Utilities and you get a free 30 day trial. Run it once a week. It removes most spyware and took care of ShopNav, but somehow the fucking thing keeps coming back. I have to run Ace Utilities to remove it again.

I can't get rid of shopnav either. I have tried spysweeper and spybot. I used shopnav's uninstall programs both the download and automatic. After I ran them it said "uninstall complete", but shopnav is still on my system. I tried the manual removal instructions but none of the files or registry entries I'm supposed to delete are on my computer. They are really starting to piss me off.
Has any one had any luck with uninstalling their crap? Does anyone have any ideas?

What i did was do a system restore, but only held it off until the day i restored too. I called the shopnav people, but they were not there. Gee i wonder y!!

Many times, websites do not work for me because it loads the shopnav error site. I've tried to find the shopnav dll files on my computer and the srng value in my registry, but they're not there. I downloaded spyhunter, but I need to register and, I think pay, to actually clear out the spyware. I went to the shopnav site, and clicked the uninstall link, and lo and behold, it led me to the shopnav error site and wouldnt let me download the uninstall software. I don't know what to do. If anyone can help me, my email is heteroheretic@hotmail.com

i have tried to go to lavasoft but ShopNav will not let me go there. then when i try to get spyware software from tucows it will redirect me no matter what software i choose.
i do not have it in my registry or in the folder that it is supposed to be in. i have no idea where it is and it still comes up.

The maker of Shop Nav should be hung by there privates and have their body parts cut off one by one. It was put on my computer by spyware. Dirty basters whoever thought of doing all of this annoying things to honest peoples systems should die a horrible death.

They are located at 250 Montgomery Street, San Francisco, between Market & California. Let's all go down and pay them a visit! Kurson, Can I borrow your tire iron. Let's take out as much damage on their building equal to the amount of time and money spent on dealing with this unwanted program. ERADICATE is the word of the day.

If I ever find these guys I am going to kick their geeky asses. You'd think there'd be some way to contact them so you could tell them all about the ass-kicking they can expect, but I'll be dipped if I can find the assholes. Any suggestions?
59. by Dan. 2004-05-05 12:05:35
Their ISP should shut them down and never let them on the net again. anyone that hijacks you computer should be shot!
60. by Dmorgan. 2004-05-04 19:05:16
Grrr..... it's like a plague that won't go away!!! Lucky they don't list a way to contact them or I'd sent a gd email for every pop up I got, then again it would take so much time I'd have to quit my job.
