Thanks EGGW,
Definately use the RIM Removal Tool through your Blackberry Desktop Manager application provided at this link:
Removal of Etisalat Surveillance Software patch
Thanks RIM
Guys, thanks very much for posting this fix. I applied it and now my trusty BB is back to normal. My phone is quite old and I had just assumed that I was going to have to buy a new one. I can't believe that I was going to toss a perfectly fine unit because Etisislut suckered me into installing dodgy software.
Even after all my years in the UAE, this is a bit of a shocker to me.
