Has anyone looked at the RevoUninstaller?

You're obviously missing the point of this topic. If not, you sort of plugging your uninstaller.

Alright fredvries,

We know that the link is uninstallers.blogspot.com But new users who visit here doesn't. So, it would be helpful if you add the link to your blog when you post. At least once or twice per page.

www.revouninstaller.com/

adding the usual at the beginning.

I have been using it for over a year and it does a very thorough job.

I am not saying the webblog is not good, just an alternative.

Yep, I've been using it for a while now, Great little program.

Not sure why anyone would want to 'advertise' a general uninstaller in this topic if a site is devoted to specific uninstallers.

Revo should contact me themselves if they want to advertise and not send one of their acolytes. I always wanted to use that word 'acolytes' in a post and now I see my chance ;)

acolytes
I was once accused of being one of those on a "Dragon" forum.  ;D

There's a place for using a generic uninstaller but only when the 'specialist'
is unavailable. For an antivirus program, a generic uninstaller like Revo, certainly
is not a recommended product.
Why ask for a potential problem when avoiding one is what using the removal tool is
all about.  ??? :o ???

You would rather label anyone that expresses their own opinion and gives information so another can make their own decisions.

I think you've not quite understood this thread, and been rather tersely treated.

This is a link to a site that hosts specific tailored uninstallers for security programs.
That site is maintained by the OP. Rather well. And is a very useful resource, often referenced by those helping to troubleshoot installation problems with other security programs. The uninstallers linked within are designed by the vendors for the programs they are to remove.

Ideally the content or link would be in a sticky. Since it's not, it's handy to keep it near the top of page 1, which the OP does by regularly posting updates. The updates may also be useful for someone who has been waiting/hoping for a specific uninstaller to be released.

I think it could be improved, as was suggested earlier, by re-posting the link every few posts, or at the top of each page, since it's gone to 14 pages of updates by now. (Including it in a sticky would be even better. Then fredvries would only have to edit the sticky periodically. 14 pages of updates is a bit much to sift through.)

A discussion about Revo (which you can seriously bork your 'pooter with if you're not a bit careful, BTW) would probably best be in a separate thread, because it is a generic tool.
