There are three ways to uninstall/remove a program.



1) Stop the program by right clicking on the icon in the taskbar and then try to uninstall in add/remove program.



2) Boot your computer in safe mode by pressing F8 and selecting safe mode from the menu while restarting , then follow step 1.



3)Remove the program from startup menu as follows



(start %26gt; run %26gt; type msconfig



press ok. Click on startup, uncheck it from the list. click on apply. click on ok. press restart. Check the window that appears after restart, press ok)



Then go to control panel %26gt; add/remove program to uninstall.



If nothing of the above works. Then The best way to remove unwanted programs which you can not remove from add/remove dialog in control panel on your computer is to remove it from registry. If you are comfortable with manually editing registry, otherwise use registry cleaning software like RegScrubXP to remove the entries of offending software from registry and then use a cleaning software like ccleaner to remove other files such as exes, dlls etc created by the offending program.
