Program is called Optery. It removes you from all the companies that sell your info. They make all the request to remove your info from People Finders, classmates and all the 300+ sites that deal it. I love it. Within 2 months I was totally gone. Getting it back once removed and you opt out would be illegal. If you request to be removed they have to comply.
