Panda is a Spanish company this is rather confusing to me but maybe that is intentional. I don't know is it OK to tear the fingernails out and crush the testicles of people who steal games passwords and force them to write a cleanup program actually if it can do the cleanup then I think it's best to use it he does know _all_ the changes his software made to those systems, and others don't I would question if it is a good thing to continue to trust any installation that can be attacked in this way so I don't know that it helps to just fix it back to it's pristene but vulnerable prior state.
