I may be wrong, but isnt it a bad idea to download and install an executable file from the same person that gave you the trojan and highjack that screwed up your computer in the first place? To top it off you manually enter a registry entry for them, one that could potentially enable whatever it was that you just downloaded?
I read those instructions, looked pretty shady to me.

I've had it off of my computer for almost a week now. I checked with all my other stuff that I use for removing spyware for any sign of it, and there is no sign. Nothing has come up in adaware (which had detected it and "removed" it, only for it to come back), HJT, regmon, Norton, Spybot, etc. etc. The uninstaller didn't try accessing the internet (that would have come up on my ZoneAlarm). I would say that NoVa Audi just got reinfected somehow.

Actually, no -- no registry entry were made. One was deleted according to the instruction. You are right to some extent. Anyone who would do such shit is unethical, and I have been monitoring my computer for a week, and I have another thread running here where Crunchie has been helping me for a few days now..I had that thread going even before Ceomoses posted the solution that worked fo him..I tried it too, and it worked and I have been clean for 5 days now..A few other people who have tried this are also okay.
I believe that by law, one is required to give a way to uninstall their programs. I am hoping there was some decency in these scumbags to give the users a way to get rid of their shit..... :evil:
