IM NAMES NO-MORE

I hate im names and so does everyone else i know i got soooo sick of telling them how to get rid of it im gonna forward them here and for all you other readers to enjoys...

Step 1 Download and install

This bit isnt to get rid of it, i had worked out how to get rid of it ages ago. this is just to show you the installation, plus i needed the pictures for the deleting bit ( later )


the first image is of the home page ( YES I USE IE )

The second is asking me what to do with the download i chose run because i have a fast internet connection ( chances are you do too ) after that it tells me to accept their EULA ( end user licence agreement ) which is a legal document that stops you sewing them if something goes wrong ( your willing to give total control to them depending on what it states ) and

The third pic is of the second screen after you accept the EULA saying where you want it to install youve probly forgotten where you installed it by now oh well if your also a geek youll know how to get to where you installed it if not tough luck

Thats why you came to this

This is the funniest thing I have ever read. I love how you blanked out your username on the start menu, but we know it's Kane. Very confused on that one. This Instructable is pretty confusing bro.

[binnie]

hmmm its my first. i like to ask myself lotsa qsts aswell. i just wrote them in here as i was thinking it. and the qsts help, because other verions ( if they exist ) may use different names or things like that. as for my name. i dont care but i couldnt be stuffed to remove it from the task manager. If thats how you know its 'kane'. i had CS2 already open when i removed the programs list. a i would like to know how i could improve this instructable so please give me your ideas

[davidprosser]

wtf is a "qsts"?

[firesketch]

I think it's a question...

[davidprosser]

lol or even "questions" plural...

[firesketch]

So this is just... how to delete a program? There are many, much simpler ways mate. No offence or anything.

[binnie]

I would like to add the yellow box things around the pics but i dont know how can someone help me plz

[davidprosser]

You do know how to do that because you have one in picture three of step 1...

[Aeshir]

AHAHA YOU USE INTERNET EXPLORER!! Get Opera, G cracker. Teh best broswer evah.

[binnie]

i use linux most of the time, so i use firefox this is my familys computer and my mum dosent get computers that well, so we have to keep it simple

[Aeshir]

Pfff yeah cuz IE is so simple (no offense).

[davidprosser]

lol

[davidprosser]

Is "deletion" even a word?

[The_pyrogeek]

wow, your pretty stupid in the first place to even download that crap for im names

[altaria1993]

no offence, but your quite stupid, in step 2 your name is blurred, but in step 4 you left you name unblurred about 20 times >.<

[binnie]

rofl yea i forgot bout those! eh, too hard! rofl

[mapleisme]

You rock. Thanks so much for writing how to get rid of the program, it helped me a lot. Thanks so much!

[munkey_b0y]

real confusing instructable, took me ages to work out what it was actually about. kudos for helping out your friends and people who have installed this piece of rubbish. But maybe next time a little background info on the PURPOSE of the intructable in the intro would save a lot of time.

Whats a 'kudo' ????????? like points or sumfin

[lemonie]

One definition of 'kudos' for you:

And for Kodos...

[lemonie]

I'd never hear of this, and never been bothered by it. Could you advise "How not to get lumbered with IM NAMES in the first place"? And the registry key(s) would be useful.

[binnie]

dont click the link in other peoples msn window ( or other messengers ) ive uploaded a picture of what it looks like

[binnie]

im not tooo sure on the keys - ill look into it

[annacramm]

this im names are crazy who has envented them?

[679x]

trillian is alot better

[Crash2108]

What?

[edwardchen]

Yes, I agree. I think that the use of capitalization and punctuation such as apostrophes for contractions and "their" for possessives would help clean up the instructable. Also, additional comments (that are not used to further the instructions) within the instructions only seem to confuse the reader more. Good luck!

[rbhays]

Trillian has a function where you can rename people in your buddy list.

[Aeshir]

So does Windows Live Messenger.

[Phill]

& Gaim, actually, almost everything does.

[binnie]

what are we talking about here?????

[Phill]

I don't get it, they change your IM screen name each time? Or... Yeah, I'm not quite understanding.

[binnie]

All im names is, is a website with a database full of names like, to show off to your friends or that sorta thing. but to access the database you need to download this file, which they dont tell you will give a little pop up on all of your contacts windows saying that you get your names from * the website* it gets really annoying and you cant delete it

[jnixon]

Oh. So this is how to get rid of a malware? Never heard of imnames. Thanks tho, I'll keep it in mind.

[binnie]

its a site where you can get free names for your messnger. like funny ones or things like that, the only problem is that they make you download there software to make it work. that leaves a message on every conversation and can get annoying
