Complete and detailed instructions have been posted already, here. Please read threads before posting and asking which has already been said.

A friend's son installed this, realised their mistake and tried to uninstall it without using the process described in this thread and now they are unable to login to messenger or view www.hotmail.com.

I called around to them on Saturday and worked through the process but it seemed slightly different (not sure if they installed a different version or if it is because of their attempts at uninstall). The most notable was that the exclusion****.ini files were in the application data folder for the user account rather than system.

Also, it seems to cross install between user accounts (unless everyone in that family installed Block Checker and just blamed him - possible).

When the process described in this thread didn't work, I had to give up as I was meant to be elsewhere but promised to return and sort it out this week.

Has anyone got any ideas how to regain access to hotmail and messenger?

Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks,

Dave

the way u posted is not effective...
the block-checker still remain in my comp...
pls help...
process explorer9x cannot kill the process...

My daughter downloaded the Blockchecker from AIM and I have spent the last few hours trying to find out what was going on with this dang computer.  Once I found out, I then tried to get rid of it.  This was the second site I found for info and was all ready to just come back tomorrow (it's a lengthy process) when I took one more look for some sort of help.  Woohoo!!  I finally succeeded with that and it was VERY easy and painless.  I went to the following site (http://www.jayloden.com/block-checker.htm) and it took less than five minutes and as of right now, there is absolutely no trace of Blockchecker.  I truly hope this helps others with the same problem.  I'm not positive but this may be an AIMFix only, but I do know that it WILL work for AIM.

[size=4][color=red][b][font=Tahoma[/font][align=justify]IT DOES NOT WORK ITS A VIRUS DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, this program gave me three Trojan viruses. I detected the viruses with AVG Free, you can Google it and download, it's free and it works. I also have a virus vault that I put my viruses in to disable their activity. I also killed all signs of Block Checker on my computer.

Several of my friends had this, they were all slightly technologically impaired, and had no idea what they were doing, it was very hard to tell them what to do over MSN without using remote assistance. Eventually I succeeded in my blind instructions and obviously they had uninstalled it (the tell-a-friend-about-the-virus-i-have message never showed up again. EVER.).
