I was affected by this bug. I did not meet with success using the recommended methods, and so decided to attempt to remove ndiswrapper entirely. I followed the steps recommended here http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Uninstall_HowTo and successfully used sudo rm -r to remove all files involving ndiswrapper, found by searching the file system. Afterwards, using locate and find to search for any other ndiswrapper files did not print anything, so I assumed that I was fine. However, attempting to reinstall any version of ndiswrapper says that it is already installed....did I miss a file? Is there a location where ndiswrapper creates files that locate and find would not reveal?

Thanks in advance for your help!
