Default google web accellerator - how to remove?

i'm sick of google web accellerator downloading 50mb each day just to fill it's cache, and i don't beleive it realy saved me the 3 hours it claims, so i want to uninstall it

i did the uninstall, but after each reboot, it's there again. it's been removed from the "add or remove programs" menu, but it's still in my start-menu. if i click uninstall there, it says it's already unintalled

but it's fucking still running images/smilies/mad.gif

any ideas?

(i already tried stuff like repair registery and all, but that didn't help)

are you shure you had all the ie's closed when you uninstalled it.

You may also try uninstalling while in safe made. I uninstalled it yesterday and it worked fine, one of my friends who uses firefox had problems uninstalling it though.

maybe you should first kill all processes related to it (firefox, ie, google web acc) and then uninstall it?

tried in safe mode, doesn't work. it's protected against an uninstall in safe mode (so what's still the point of safe mode i wonder?)

already tried with first killing the processes, didn't help
