Barbara, have you taken it off your startup list? If you haven't try that then try to uninstall it again.

Although the program is not in the Start Up menu, it seems to start when the computer starts. I have turned off protection, but still when I try to remove I get an error message saying the program may be in use. There doesn't seem to be an uninstall option within the program itself. Can anyone help? Follow me on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/barkingbabs Barbara Wilson T: 02887784046 M: 07917710779 E: barkingbabs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx IM: creativeeyes@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Skype: creativeeyes
