Jerzy,
We provide advertising technology to software companies. The advertising
allows them to give their software away to consumers for free, but still
generate revenue. Our advertising technology is used by programs like
Go!Zilla, CuteFTP, GetRight, Buddyphone, and over 300 others.
Your machine connects to our servers to update the ad data that is used in
these software applications when you are not connected to the Internet. We
ask our software partners to include an explanation of this in their
product's license agreement, which is displayed during the installation
process. If you know it was not included, please let us know which product
you installed, and we will make sure the license agreement is updated to
explain that this will happen. The advertisements are stored on the PC and
are then displayed when you run the software application you have installed
that uses our advertising technology. Our DLL is loaded when the browser
is
launched. When the DLL is loaded, we deliver advertisements to your
computer. Please be aware that we do NOT send personally identifiable data
unless knowingly and willingly volunteered to us by you. We also do not
search your registry or monitor your web browsing.
To continue to use the program you have installed that uses our advertising
technology, this connection to our servers needs to take place. However,
if
you are no longer using the software, you can download a file from our site
that will remove our technology from your system. Please go to:
http://www.radiate.com/privacy/remover.html
If you wish to manually remove our technology from your system, you can do
the following. First, delete all instances of "amcis.dll" and
"advert.dll,"
this will cause any connections between your system and our servers to stop.
Please make sure your browser, and any software that utilizes our
advertising technology, is not running when you delete these files.
You can delete the following registry keys:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Aureate\
You may also delete the following directories:
amc
amcdl
Please keep in mind that if you have other programs on your machine that use
our technology, they may cease to function without these files and registry
keys. I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Jeremy
