Unbelievable. The uninstaller for the rootkit uses an ActiveX control that leaves an even greater security risk. The ActiveX control is marked to allow any script to be run from any website without needing user permission. This includes downloading and executing code behind the scenes.

What an amazing mess. I don't know who's more to blame:

1. Sony for distributing this software
2. First4Internet for being utterly incompetent
3. Microsoft for allowing such things to be installed without your knowledge
