Remove unwanted programs with Revo Uninstaller

Revo Uninstaller works with PCs running Windows 2000/XP/Vista. At its most basic level, the application lets you find and remove programs. But once its done running the uninstaller, it will ask if you want it to search for leftover files and unused registry entries, which you can delete with just a click or two.
You can also run Revo Uninstaller in "Hunter Mode," which lets you drag an icon over various programs to uninstall them, or just to find more information or kill running processes. Another feature lets you manage what programs auto-start with Windows, while another useful tool cleans up your web browser cache.

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts.

Does anybody notice things like there is ZERO information about this company anywhere on the web site, except the "VS Revo Group" name? No address. No country. No parent company or other products they're proud of. No version history. No forums. Nothing. Maybe I'm paranoid, but I'm just seeing too many of these "free" programs suddenly coming out of nowhere lately. Maybe it's OK, but a little suspicion is a good thing. I'll pass for now, thanks anyway.
