Uninstall seems the most important.

I installed "Hotel Booking Pro" in a protected VDM to check it for
viruses and performance. In the first 30 minutes of testing, no
viruses were detected. However, many irritating programming errors
(mainly script errors) were uncovered. Also, some clicks on icons do
not do any discernible useful function. The logic of the programming
also seems flawed.

Overall, the presentation is actually moderately pleasing. The program
appears to be a web-based personal information collection tool, with
some capability to forward such info to advertisers of dubious
distinction (spammers?).

Bottom line = The program is not useful for understanding the science
of time-travel and its physics. So its promotion in this
science-oriented newsgroup should be considered _spam_.
