Lightbulb I Found Way To Uninstall Limeshop Legit

After searching for a couple minutes, I realized that I was not the only one unable to easily uninstall this "Limeshop" (hey, I didn't even know what it was at first). After a minute of browsing the registry, I found the solution. It's a "faulty" registry key.

Go to run and type "regedit" to open the registry.
Search for lime or limeshop until you find a folder called limeshop.xml (It should like this)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr
entVersion\Uninstall\limeshop.xml

There's a key called "UninstallString" You know what that's supposed to do, but if you look carefully, you'll realize that key is way too long and actually repeats itself... so just delete the chunk off the end thats repetition, I believe you should start deleting right before the lp part before the last set of quotes. I can't be more specific because mine isn't there anymore. If you're scared or a noob, just take off one little chunk at a time and keep trying to run the uninstaller from the control panel/add-remove program menu. It should do the the little wizard thing with the progress bar and poof! ALL GONE!
