Can't you just uninstall it? If you have trouble doing that, I hear revouninstaller does a good job of that. It should take the program off and that should stop any thing going out to update.. :thumbsup:

Anything you do they will know it. If the computer is yours and you allow others to use it, then you control it.
A limited account seems to be the way to go.

Regarding your inquiry on freewares, try to check the pinned post of Grinler on the Software forum. Just in case you haven't checked it out, it includes a list of suggested freewares for different types of applications.

It's really helpful for freeware fanatics like us. Don't you thick so?
