Elite Keylogger v4.3
I recently installed Elite Keylogger trial v4.3,but during installation xp freezed. Now everytime on startup xp freezes and i am working in safe mode. After some googling and tinkering with xp I have come to know the exact problem , but I am not able to solve it.
The problem is ofcourse elite keylogger. But if I disable the DHCP service then i am able to start xp in normal modem, and if i enable it then xp freezes immediately. So there is some conflict between keylogger software files and the DHCP service. As i am using wireless network i need the dhcp service running.
So I need a procedure to remove elite keylogger completelty.
I had mailed the support team of widestep (Elite keylogger maker) for uninstall procedure but couldn't get any reply. Some steps i tried as per their website and different forums are as follows:
1 - Cant uninstall from add/remove as i installed the keylogger in invisible mode.
2 - After starting normally w/o dhcp service, I tried to make visible the keylogger by typing "unhide" in "Run" window but it says "gui not found" (it means the keylogger is installed partially as it is replying to the "unhide" command in "Run" window.
3 - I tried to install newer version of elite keylogger v4.5 but it didnt saying "First uninstall older version".
4 - I have scanned using antivir and spybot with latest updates but didn't solve the problem.
5 - As per some forums I visited, they mentioned some files and registry keys to delete (eq. tdiip.sys,usbkbd.sys,usbkbd,{0A252B94-2FCD-BBF8-8ADD-AA019F83938E}
,etc), but i couldnt find such files or registry keys.May be the instructions are for older versions of elite keylogger.
