Follow these instructions to permanently un-install SurfWatch from your machine (Windows only): 1. Remove the shortcuts to "SurfWatch" (and possibly "SurfWatch Updater") from the StartUp folder. 2. Open the win.ini file and replace the line load= C:\CO_RO_NT\surfctl.exe with just load= 3. Run regedit.exe to edit the Windows 95 Registry and delete the key "GraphicsFilter", which is a subkey of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices\ The value of this key will be "C:\CO_RO_NT\surfctl.exe". Delete it before continuing. 4. Restart the computer in DOS mode. Move to the c:\windows\system\ directory and type: attrib -h -r -s system.drv attrib -h -r -s net.drv move system.drv system.bak move net.drv system.drv 5. Type "win" to start Windows again. If it tells you "Windows is still running one or more MS-DOS based programs..." try typing "exit". SurfWatch will now be disabled on your computer. Reverse all of the steps above to re-enable it.
