How to remove Flypaper?
I installed one of the first version of Flypaper on my PC. I have since un-installed it but it still shows up. Some sites indicate that it is part of my FireFox set-up: "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2 FlyPaper/RC1 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)" How can I remove it?

Inappropriate?Hello JJ,
This is very interesting. I have never heard of FP leaving anything residual in any of the browsers before. I will research this and get back to you. In the meantime, if you would like to open a support ticket concerning this problem, please visit our site at www.flypaper.com. Thank you.

Inappropriate?Hello JJ,
Please follow the steps below to remove the Flypaper UserAgent string from your Firfox:
The UserAgent string was removed a long time ago. Looking at the users post it appears yours is from RC1.
1. You can manually remove the UserAgent string by entering About:Config into the address bar of FireFox.
2. Scroll down to general.useragent and find the entry with the reference to Flypaper/RC1.
3. Edit the entry and remove the Flypaper/RC1 string from the value.
Please note you should be VERY careful in what you edit in there as you can destroy the FireFox install by modifying the wrong entries. The extra entry in the UserAgent doesn’t have ANY impact on running FireFox and is not used in anyway. The entry was removed from production installers as it wasn’t used and not needed.
Please let us know if this helps
