Do you know what governments do to spies? They prosecute them – prison terms or a death penalty. Yet those who load spyware, malware etc. into person computers are ignored, is this legal? Spyware loading into any computer should be made criminal!

WhoLockMe.exe (from Paris, France) has spyware/malware in it. It is nasty to advertise it as the least. Should be criminal.

Hi,
I just had this ditto issue with 3 real player files, they are finally gone.
This is what I did.
1) Uninstall the programme ,re-install it later if you choose to.
2) create a folder
3) delete the folder instead of individual files together

Well It worked for me…
