Removal
There is no uninstall feature, but Common anti-spyware titles can remove DialerOffline.
Manual removal
Open a DOS command prompt window (from Start->Programs->Accessories) and enter the commands:
cd "%WinDir%\System"
regsvr32 /u DialerOffline.dll
You can then delete the 'DialerOffline.dll' file inside the System folder ('System32' on Windows NT/2000/XP) inside the Windows folder, and whatever dialler connections are using it - in the specimen I tested this was a 'LiveGirls' desktop icon and a folder 'C:\blankdialer', but this may vary.
