Does what it says; Read carefully how to remove!
RevMark76August 11, 2009
Pros
First, you must know that I'll try most ANY free utility that I think MIGHT increase productivity. So, on a whim, I installed PI just to see what it looks like. It does what it says - organizes your fav. bookmarks, feeds, etc. in one place.
Cons
However, after a few minutes, I decided "Okay, that's fine". Maybe I'll use it someday. But for now, I want just want to revert to my old homepage. That's where it got scary! Couldn't figure out how to remove it.
Summary
Things I Tried: manually resetting my Firefox homepage, editing the registry. Even ran Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware out of desperation. No luck. Finally, discovered that to remove it, you must delete your PI account. Go to 'Settings' page (access this from top right of main page). At the very bottom of the settings page click on the link that says something like "Delete My Account". That removes it. I'd say: 'Give it a spin', but know how to remove it before you test it.
