doesn’t work at all – some add-ons have the disable button greyed out, and besides, the method on this post only DISABLES addons, not remove them. what a waste of tiem. why even bother posting junk that doesn’t work?

If this did not work, you have a Virus. You need to do a full scan with a Rescue Disk.

Spot on with this write-up, I seriously feel this site needs a great deal
more attention. I’ll probably be returning to read through more, thanks for
the information!
