| Manual Removal: |
From 'Downloaded Program Files' in the Windows folder, right-click the 'IEDial class' entry and remove it. This does not actually get rid of the software, so open a DOS command prompt window (from Start->Programs->Accessories) and enter the following command, for Windows 95/98/Me:
"%WinDir%\System\regsvr32.exe" /u "%WinDir%\System\IEAccess2.dll"
