how do i get rid of veiwmgr.exe

Follow the link in the article.

After i removed viewpoint it came back but i found a file in C:\Documents and Settings\bill\Local Settings\Temp\vmgrremok.exe that when i put my mouse pointer over it said "Viewpoint Installer" this program was trying to make a connection to a server when i tried to uninstall viewpoint from add/remove programs. I deleted it and viewpoint has not come back.

Zone Alarm popped up a message that it was trying to get info from the web. I just denied giving it access to the web.

Oh, thank you! You were first on the Google result when I punched in "viewmgr.exe"

I had yesterday installed AIM, which I've uninstalled today when I realized that Trillian offered an alternative.

So when I got the viewmgr.exe message from Symantec, I was suspicious and denied it access. Fortunately, I was right to be suspicious.

Appreciate the info. I was getting the same alert through ZoneAlarm. Went in and removed teh references as per the initial instructions and posts and removed the offending software!

Does anybody knows if viewmgr.exe is related to iTunes? It looks like it started to work in the background after I installed iTunes...

Yea I have a feeling it might be related to iTunes as well. I was browsing itunes when it popped up for me in ZoneAlarm. I currently have denied it access to the web, though it seems more likely to be the new version of AIM as others have conjectured...

Thanks!
