"Browser Address Error Redirector"

Google's "Don't be Evil" mantra seems to be rapidly falling by the wayside.

I was doing a bit of a tidy-up on my laptop today (Sony Vaio purchased mid-2008) and noticed in Programs and Features something called "Browser Address Error Redirector". The only menu option was "Uninstall/Change" and only by hunting down into the registry was I able to find the uninstall string:

regsvr32 /u /s "C:\PROGRA~1\GOOGLE~1\BAE.dll"

Now, not only does this hide from the user (by not specifying the manufacturer) that it's from Google, but, the name almost makes it sound "official". Pah. To make matters worse, the uninstaller just unregisters the DLL, leaving it sat there on the PC. Erm, that's *not* uninstalling!
