Very straightforward. I am pretty sure I got the malware from an "arcade games package" program (including pacman, space invaders etc.) from downloads.com. I naively thought they wouldn't be likely to host programs with malware etc. I'll know for again. I tried manual removal, but no joy. Thank you very much Amir.

Somewhere around the end of June 2006, I caught this horror. It was not well documented at that time, and Googling proved that not many people were infected, but those who caught this were driven mad trying to eliminate it. It was my first infection in 6 years, and proved nearly impossible to remove despite everything I tried. Long story short, after 100+ hours of work and research, I disabled it from rebooting, but have been afraid of it reoccurring ever since, and still never knew its origins until reading the info in this freeware. I was never sure if I had removed every part of it, as this is the type of thing one wants ALL gone, and running this freeware found a couple of non-operative registry entries still left over, and removed them. So very glad to have this program on board now so that I can deal with this NSIS Media Extension if I ever get it again. Thanks very much for addressing this, as at the time, all the virus software companies didn't have a clue.

I found some remnants of the NSIS malware on my computer after running this program. I thought I had gotten it all with previous attempts at uninstalling the garbage, but some of it was still on my computer although it was inactive. This malware is difficult to get rid of, and I'm glad that someone finally took it seriously and provided a sure method for removal of ALL the components it installs. If you are hounded by popups generated by this malware, NSIS Media Remover appears to be the way to shut them down.
