I had the same problem with the demo. I rather enjoyed the game and hosted quite a few matched although DD2 was more fun....

Anyway, just do a search in the regedit for LOS and delete. This is the thread I started at the official site. N-fusion (http://nfusion-interactive.com:81/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=1799&highlight=remove)

i clicked on the download free trial icon and thats what i have on the desktop and it tries to connect and download the program but i dont want it anymore. This is (unfortunately) a familiar problem with the Trymedia download manager application (-dm files). Here are the instructions I send to folks contacting us via the Feedback page about this:

1. make a note of the folder in which the file resides (if not the desktop)
2. reboot WinXP so the file is definitely not kept open by any process
3. do not open any folder via My Computer or Windows Explorer
4. instead start a Command Prompt window (Accessories menu)
5. you should be in the "C:\Documents and Settings\<YOUR USERNAME>\" folder
6. type: cd <path-to-folder> (you can now use the 'dir' command to see the files in that folder)
6a. if it's on the desktop, type: cd Desktop (you can now use the 'dir' command to see the icons and files on your desktop)
7. type: del LOSVietnam-dm.exe

Hope that helps.
