Version: Ad Annihilator 2.4.9
"Won't Uninstall"
Cons: The software (malware) either removed or hid the file and navigation toolbars including options on IE7. Only the address bar and the ad annihilator tool bar were visible. It blocks frames on some web sites even if they're news feeds and disables links. Couldn't even login into my web based email account. When I tried to uninstall it, I got a message saying that it couldn't find the install.log file. Tried to delete it from Win Program Files but it wouldn't let me. Install at your own risk!

It is difficult to advise not knowing the specific details of the problems of this user but general consideratons are below.
Ad Annihilator does not modify existing toolbars. But note that you may easily turn on or off any toolbar by right clicking IE toolbar area and checking or unchecking the respective toolbars.
If you need to enable a frame or picture that is accidendally blocked, simply click "Unblock banners, popups and cookies on this site" button on Ad Annihilator toolbar and make sure "Enable banners on this site" option is checked.
Most of the problems experienced by Ad Annihilator users are due to offline browsing mode. If you really don't need offline browsing, simply switch Ad Annihilator to Simple mode. This usually eliminates many of the problems inherent to offline browsing but not to Ad Annihilator such as inability to log in, etc.
Uninstallation should be performed from the Windows Control Panel like for any other Windows program. This way Ad Annihilator is usually uninstalled in seconds. This is detailed in our FAQ question at
