Commonname Instructions
Caution: imperfect removal can result in loss of Internet connection for variants using cnmib.dll. Each successive variant of CommonName gets harder to remove manually. Do not try to uninstall CommonName/Mib, CommonName/Zenet, or CommonName/Winnet by just deleting the files. They include a Winsock2 layered service provider module (LSP); if you manage to delete this you will lose network connectivity.
End the 'winnet.exe' and 'comwiz.exe' process from the Task Manager (ctrl-alt-delete). Open the registry (Start->Run->regedit) and delete the following keys and values:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CommonName
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt\Add A Page Note
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt\Bookmark This Page
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt\Email This Link
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt\Search using CommonName
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2\ Parameters\Protocol_Catalog9\Catalog_Entries
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BabeIE.AgentIE
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BabeIE.AgentIE.1
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BabeIE.Handler
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BabeIE.Handler.1
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BabeIE.Helper
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BabeIE.Helper.1
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{6656b666-992f-4d74-8588-8ca69e97d90c}
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{9346A6BB-1ED0-4174-AFB4-13CD4EC0AA40}

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib\{DD0032DF-CEEF-4E0A-8B75-E4D8861E11E5}
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Protocols\Handler\cn
Before you can delete it, the DLL file must be deregistered.
Open a DOS command prompt window (from Start->Programs->Accessories). Enter the following commands in the DOS window: cd "%WinDir%\System" regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\CommonName\Toolbar\CNBabe.dll" and cd "\Program Files"
deltree /Y CommonName
Users of non-English versions of Windows may also need to replace the name 'Program Files' with the name of the Program Files folder on their operating system.
After the deregistration, end the 'msbb.exe' process from the Task Manager (ctrl-alt-delete). Having successfully done this you should be able to delete the entire 'Commonname' folder in Program Files. To clean up the registry, delete the keys HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software with the name 'msbb' (nc, rnd, msbb variants), 'saie', 'sais', 'salm', 'saap', 'sain', '180solutions' or 'zango' and, if present, the uninstall key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall called 'nCASE', 'msbb' or 'zango'.
