Hi!
Great! Just after reinstalling my whole system, I proceeded to install Daemon Tools and accidently accepted this SearchBar thingy. Immediately deinstalled it again.
There was still a VVSN.exe running in my task manager - *after* the uninstall finished. WTF?
Some googling revealed that this is directly related to the WhenU SearchBar, that it monitors my surfing habits, displays pop-up windows is a major security risk and in short should be uninstalled ASAP if found on a system. Ok, I killed it off.
Quite pissed off I downloaded and ran SpyBot S&D on my just installed windows, and it found 6 items the WhenU uninstaller obviously "forgot" to remove.
Well, whatever, I don't trust any kind adware, all greedy bastards. I'm off reinstalling my system yet again
