I stayed at a bed & breakfast and they gave me free cheesecake after uninstalling Bonzi for them. I just wanted to browse the web faster! Didn't take much to uninstall malware back then. I probably added years to the useful life of their computer, it ate so much CPU.

I remember trying to remove BB from a PC we had and having a hell of a time doing it. It wasn't just asking it to stop in Programs & Features, I was rooting it out of the registry for hours and if you rebooted without getting all of it, the talons spread.

You got lucky.
