Disable/Prevent "YCMMirage" from running automatically?

‎03-26-2012 12:23 PM

I have a new dv6z series laptop.  I would like to stop/prevent the YCMMirage from running as a service automatically.  How can I do this?

Doesnt it make you upset that in todays world of Internet Idendity theft, sites post our personal details by default? Yea, me too.

Hi,

 

This is launched as a scheduled task, so open windows Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and open Task Scheduler.  Left click once on Task Scheduler Library to highlight it and look for an entry called 'MirageAgent'.  Left click this once to highlight it, then right click and select Disable.  Restart the notebook for the change to take effect.

 

Regards,
