A company called 180 Solutions uses a program called
nCase as a vehicle for it's pop-up ads which are defying
my attempts to purge it from my system. I have WinXP as
an OS and have tried using the Add/Remove Programs tool
through the control panel, as well as Disk Cleanup, and
directly deleting, in that order. All these tools are
successful in removing the pop-up ad products associated
with nCase and stored in it's file folder, but when only
the nCase application is left in the folder it throws up
a message declaring "Access is denied" as if it were an
XP system file. Within a minute of this message nCase
begins to automatically replace all the deleted ads until
it has replenished itself and resumed it's constant pop-
up ad campaign. I've tried contacting 180 Solutions and
asking them how to uninstall their nCase application
(which they aggresively sell to businesses through their
website) but have been unable to get a response from
them. Any of you technical magicians out there have a
voodoo cyberspell or other killer solution to this one??
 
Hi Mike,

Try this removal instructions on your PC
http://www.doxdesk.com/parasite/nCase.html

Also you can try and install anti AdWare Software. My recommendation is
AdAware from Lavasoft and can be downloaded and used for free.

Since it kind of works like antivirus it needs to be updated to get the
latest signature files... For this operation you can use WebUpdate Icon once
you install the program...

Also to protect your PC, install and use Antivirus. Don't forget to update
it at least once a week. And to keep your PC healthy, update it regularly.
Visit www.windowsupdate.com

I hope this helps you out...
 
Greetings --

For pop-ups caused by some sort of "adware" and/or "spyware" that
you've inadvertently installed, two products that are quite effective
at finding and removing scumware are Ad-Aware from www.lavasoft.de and
SpyBot Search and Destroy from http://security.kolla.de/. Both have
free evaluation versions.
