I ditched the whole package of Internet Cleaner: both trashed the folder
and ran the uninstall. Did a doublecheck by searching for
"NetBlockade.kext" and "NetworkSpyAlert.kext" files. Found that
"NetBlockade.kext" was still in Extensions folder and, when I tried to
trash it, message box popped up stating "Operation could not be
completed because this item owned by root". I tried changing ownership
to me (the user), but to no avail (now message simply asserted that it
could not be deleted). Any suggestions on how to get rid of it?
