Getting rid of kontiki?

Can't rid my computer of this insidious programme!:mad:
Originally installed C4 on Demand, and was quite pleased with this. Then at a later date attempted to install the BBC equivalent: the I-player. This is where the problems started, it wrecked my computer and also appeared to sabotage the C4 OD. Apparently each programme uses the peer to peer "kontiki".
I've tried "K-Clean" to no avail, and really don't want to set the system restore to a pre C4 OD date as I have added several programmes since and really don't need the hassle and time wasted re-installing them.
Please any ideas?

- 1. Exit all documents and programs before you begin
- 2. Download and save KClean.exe to your PC (for example, to the My Documents folder)
- 3. Locate and double-click the KClean.exe program
- 4. You will see a security warning message - Click 'RUN'
- 5. KClean.exe now opens, displaying several options
- 6. Click 'SELECT ALL' for KDM Options, KDX Options, and KService Options, so that all of the options in these 3 categories are ticked
- 7. Click 'OK'
- 8. A warning message appears asking if you wish to continue - click 'YES'
- 9. Wait a few moments while the components are being removed
- 10. A confirmation message appears, stating that KClean completed successfully - click 'OK'
- 11. In a few cases, KClean.exe cannot complete its actions, and you will see an error message
- 12. If this happens, restart your PC, then repeat steps 1-10 until KClean has completed successfully.

Reboot your computer, press F8 key as your pc starts and choose safe mode
once your system is loaded in safe mode, run the Kclean from the location on your hard drive.0 -

4oD and the BBC’s iPlayer are Kontiki. It’s basically the same program with different appearances. Imagine the same sofa, but with different throws and cushions on it.The_stingemeister wrote: »Apparently each programme uses the peer to peer "kontiki".古池や蛙飛込む水の音0
