Agree that Bullseye/BargainBuddy/CashBack, et al are a boil on the backside of the internet users. To remove this pest (if indeed it is out of the Registry) required deleting from Windows programs, Uninstalling from Add/Remove programs of Control panel (after a mandatory insulting questionaire)and checking Find to see if it remained.
I have sent a complaint to the FCC using the FCC site addresses, and asked that they address this attack on privacy.
delete all the following bull**** files;
windows/system32/nvms.dll
windows/system32/msbe.dll
windows/system32/mscb.dll
apuc.dll
CC_Versn.dll
hi,
the only thing I had to do was:
try to uninstall BullsEye in Add/Remove programs.
click "NO" when asked if it should be uninstalled.
that's how it uninstalled mine.....
Sandra was right!!! Thanks

Posted by: Kirit at October 31, 2004 5:04 AMIt still doesn't work!! I see the uninstaller making a copy but it went to fast. I think I saw it copy itself back into Windows Root or system32 folder agian, to be reinstalled again. I wish the FCC would do something. Installing applications on a persons computer without their permission, is like me entering your house and installing a billboard on your living room wall. It's just not right and should be illegal.
Posted by: Ransome at November 2, 2004 9:30 AMI found this insideous little program hiding on my computer after doing an internet search for lyrics to a particular song. All of a sudden McAfee firewall starting flashing every other second alerting me to 3 separate programs trying to access the internet. Doing a CTRL/ALT/DEL in Win XP showed me an additional 6 processes running which I could not close. I closed them and they started up again.... all had to do with this Bullseye program (eXact is how it's listed in the registry). Running MSCONFIG and clicking the startup tab, I was able to disable all 6 of these programs and restart the computer. I went into REGEDIT and deleted all references to them in HKLM/Software and HKCU/Software. Then I did a CTRL/ALT/DEL and stopped the processes. They stayed stopped this time and used control panel to uninstall. It finally worked. I then ran Ad-Aware 6 and McAfee Antispyware to remove every cookie they laid on the system. Damn, I'd LOVE to get my hands around the neck of this *****
Posted by: Ed at November 2, 2004 6:28 PMI have been victimized by these pests for couple of months already and I would tell you guys that it keeps on coming back no matter how you uninstall them. Here's what I got in my add/remove programs: Bullseye Network, web rebates, ebates moe money maker, soft 56 Data Fax Voice Speakerphone Carp, lernout & Hauspie Tru Voice American English TTS Engine, shockwave. I have no idea how these things got into my computer. I tried to uninstall them but keep on coming back. One thing more, check the space where the date and time arelocated at the right hand side of your computer, maybe it happened to you too, sometimes I have pop up message that states that a new hardware has been detected in my computer. How in the world would I not know if I installed one. Also in that same place you would see a logo of a brown puppy that seems looking at you all the time and knows what you are doing in your computer. I think these bunch of crooks who initiated this craps manipulates our computer in any way
Posted by: Mar at November 3, 2004 7:51 PMI recently found "BuLLsEye Network" on my computer, the uninstalled it via add remove programs.
But every time i boot up, a file called "System32" always pops up, and i have to just exit it.
Why does this happen and how can i get it to stop??!
