When Flexnet gets installed it also apparently modifies sectors of the hard drive outside the OS partition; specifically SECTOR 32. Normal users will never see this, but every time the computer is booted that code will be read in to memory, for everafter. The uninstaller offered at the flexnet website does not clear this out. So basically it seems to be a rootkit.
