How to Remove DialerActiveX ? 

To manually remove DialerActiveX ,

1. Open a DOS command prompt window (Start->Run, type 'cmd' or 'command' ) and enter the following commands,
   
   For the GoInDirect variant:
   cd "%WinDir%\System"
   regsvr32 /u dialer_activex.ocx
   
   For the AllInOne variant, use the commands:
   cd "%WinDir%\System"
   regsvr32 /u "..\Downloaded Program Files\dialer_activex.ocx"
   del "..\Downloaded Program Files\dialer_activex.*"
   
   
2. Retart windows.
3. For the GoInDirect variant, open the System folder (inside the Windows folder, named 'System32' under Windows XP/2000/NT or just 'System' under Windows Me/98/95), and delete the file 'dialer_activex.ocx'.
   
4. Remove any dialler installed by either variant. There are likely to be shortcuts on the desktop, Start menu and Programs menu to delete, and possibly a folder named 'C:\Program Files\dialer'.
