How To Remove N-Case
What is N-Case?
Ncase is a Comparison Alternative Shopping Engine developed by 180Solutions. It appears to be installed via an ActiveX drive-by download or bundled with several file sharing programs and a few others. It will cause pop-up advertisements, can add shortcut items to the Startup or Desktop, and update itself.
There are a couple variants of Ncase, the normal one as well as at least one installed by an Active X drive-by download.
