At the bottom of all Viart websites you see the phrase Free Ecommerce Shopping Cart Software by ViArt in the footer and it is linked to Viart.com. On the Viart website it said it can be removed by activating on the Viart website. I am looking for a way to remove it without activation. Anyone know of a way to do it manually?
You have to buy a license to do this, any other way would be illegal and it would break your TOS with ViArt.

I explained in my post that I already knew that it could be done through activation. I am asking how to find and delete the code manually.
I know you did and I was just telling you that would be illegal as you need to purchase a license. Asking someone one here to help you break a license agreement isn't going to get you very far!
Illegal, or unlawful, is used to describe something that is prohibited or not authorized by law or, more generally, by rules specific to a particular situation (such as a game). I fully understand the word.
