It won't run in wine.  I tried that.  I just get a screen with no text.

The one admin that exorcised my one drive, found that it didn't work 
with virtual displays.  So it does a direct write to the graphics area.

The other Windows user that de-demonized my other drive found that he 
had to remove all the other USB stuff plugged in, including his monitor 
USB hub.

But this would be interesting and then figure a way of putting it on a 
u3 device to automatically run on any machine.  :)

Here is the link to the removal tool

I wonder what would happen if you put that you wanted to reverse 
engineer the u3 removal tool to on their comment when you download the 
software.
