Re: FAH suddently on my computer
To get to know who may have installed it on your computer just look up what information is in client.cfg file and then go for uninstall.
If it is a GUI client then look for the uninstall option (add/remove programs) under control panel.
Note: More than 365 days is not by any ordinary means as suddenly.

I'll bet that more than 365 days ago, you installed some application from a questionable site (maybe one that said it would unlock some other application) and instead of hacking the other application's copy protection, it installed a Trojan.

Well, someone did a fah install, or got a trojan, but we shouldn't infer who might have done that.gwildperson wrote:I'll bet that more than 365 days ago, you installed some application...
Please post that client.cfg info here, and then consult the Uninstall FAQ.
