Customer uninstalled the CA internet security from his vista laptop.
During the uninstall process, he is asked to tick the boxes next to which components to remove (so he ticks them all).
He later finds that CA parental control has started to block some websites (but he had never activated parental control).
Out of desperation, he deletes the whole c:\program files\ca folder
But it has no effect: some websites are still being blocked.
After some searching around, I find that renaming (in the c:\windows\system32 folder) the files winsflt.dll, winsflte.dll and mdmcls32.exe should do the trick.
After I do that, I find I have no internet access at all!
And the winsflt and mdmcls32 files seem to get renamed/recreated after a reboot anyway!
I even try to scan the registry and remove all references to winsflt (it doesn’t help).
A system restore also doesn’t help.
