Removal Instructions:

Files:

Please use Windows Explorer or another file manager of your choice to locate and delete these files.

The file at "<$WINDIR>\wvhpscp1x.exe".
Make sure you set your file manager to display hidden and system files. If Univers.Dialer uses rootkit technologies, use our RootAlyzer (http://forums.spybot.info/downloads.php?id=8) or our Total Commander anti-rootkit plugins (http://forums.spybot.info/downloads.php?id=3).
You will have to use a global search for files without a name specified. Be extra careful, because just the name might not be enough to identify files!

Delete the registry value "wvhpscp1x_Connection" at "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\RemoteAccess\Addresses\".
Delete the registry key "wvhpscp1x_Connection" at "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\RemoteAccess\Profile\".
