    We need more info. Xfly is not necessary a nasty. It may be Mozilla application, a game, and so on.

       more information - always a problem for a ludite like me. I think it is a game that my son was playing but after a couple of days he couldn't acess the game and we are left with something that cant be uninstalled and is blocking acess to the internet

      Any suggestions
