Hi! I just got a web page warning/threat about the fact that I was illegally in possession of a copy of PCTools and that it would be reported to the company who makes that software (don't remember the name)......So I deinstalled it right away, deleted the download folder from KAT with the Gutmann method (35 pass), and erased all the traces I could find in the registry and I checked for any folders left......So now I'm curious/anxious as to what I should expect next.........
Any idea? Tks! EDIT: They also had my IP number. I know it's easy to get it from anyone...... Edit part 2: It's not Pc Tools, it's PC Boost....... ignore it, you've done what they obviously wanted you to do, PCTools is crap anyway.
