So, Milligan, can we also do that to the people behind all this junk? Just once I'd love to sit on one of them for awhile, plant my bum right in the middle of the stomach. Then sneeringly ask them to take a deep breath. Then maybe bounce a little up and down, etc.

Well, I actually sucked it up and installed Zango...I knew what it was, and why it was being done, but I needed a piece of software supported by them (a video editor)...That said, I think I found a work-around for disabling most of Zango from the get go...At least in IE7...

IE7, for all it's drawbacks, allows you to EASILY manage add-ons of all types - I just went in and while the install of the software I needed was running (although I suspect you can do it after) I disabled all of the Zango add-ons. I then went to Manage on My Computer, and disabled all of the Zango start ups, etc.

Finally, I ended the Zango executable in task manager...

The beauty of this is that the registry still has the key entries that the software needs to run....but Zango gets Zippo.
