PowerStrip Manual Removal:
There is a 'PowerStrip' entry in Add/Remove
Programs, but it requires an Internet conection
and ActiveX to work, and only removes the toolbar
itself, not the updates checker, commission
hijacker or the installer control (which can be
used on any web page to reinstall PowerString).
Manual removal Open the registry (click
'Start', choose 'Run', enter 'regedit'), and find
the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.
Delete the 'LSvr' and 'LTDMgr' entries on the
right. Now find the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
and delete the 'PowerStrip' entry.
Next, open a DOS command prompt window (from
Start->Programs->Accessories) and enter the
following commands:
cd "%WinDir%\System"
regsvr32 /u "\Program Files\PowerStrip\PowrStrp.dll"
Restart the computer and you should be able to
delete the 'PowerStrip' folder in Program Files,
and the 'Presentia' folder inside Common Files
(in Program Files). You can also open the
Downloaded Program Files folder (inside the
Windows folder), right-click the 'PowerStrip
Setup' (PSOCX variant) or 'PSSetup Class' (PSSetup
variant) entry and choose 'Remove'.
If you like, you can also delete the registry
keys HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PowerStrip and
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\LSvr.Application to clean up.
