How to get rid of Babylon search - Addional Question

The thread "How to get rid of Babylon search for ever?" gave a solution. This includes uninstalling with Control Panel all programs which refer to Babylon. My poiny is: when I try and uninstall BabylonObjectInstaller, I am asked by Windows whether I authorize the program C:\Windows\Installer\19f200b7.msi from an “Unknown Publisher” to “make change to this computer”. So far, I replied "No" and BabylonObjectInstaller, stays in my list of programs.

I find ondeed strange that the Windows Uninstall procedure needs to run a program from an "unknown publisher". May I safely run it, or is there a risk that this program is itself part of the virus, and will contaminate even more my computer?.

Hello Gex01.....I had same problems and control panel sometimes misses things that piggy back in to your OS, so I downloaded WinDerStat online & searched there until I found it and deleted it once and for all...so good hunting

Thanks liamo777 for your reply. In the meantime, I used CCleaner to uninstall BabylonObjectInstaller and CCleaner managed to remove it without asking me to run a program "from an Unknown Publisher", unlike Windows. So, this closes this thread.
