Assuming you are using WIndows XP, click on the Start button, then choose Control Panel, then choose Add or Remove Programs. Find the program you want to uninstall on the list and click on it to remove it.

There are three ways to uninstall/remove a program.\n1) Stop the program by right clicking on the icon in the taskbar and then try to uninstall in add/remove program.\n2) Boot your computer in safe mode by pressing F8 and selecting safe mode from the menu while restarting , then follow step 1.\n3)Remove the program from startup menu as follows\n(start > run > type msconfig\npress 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)\nThen go to control panel > add/remove program to uninstall.\n\nIf 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. \nFree RegScrubXP registry cleaner\nhttp://bestofrest.blogspot.com/2006/11/regscrubxp-registry-cleaner.html\n\ndownlod + install + run it.\nWhen you get in the software window.\nClick on user defined problems button.\nIt will display all entries in windows registry under different categories. So scroll down the list till you reach a category company. In this category look at the names in full key, and Main key. If you locate the name there, then check the box in front of its entry and press the button Fix selected entries. It should remove the entry from the registry.\nAfter that you will need another software to remove other files created by the program on your computer. It is ccleaner, if you do not have it already; read how to use it and then download it from here.\nhttp://yanswers.blogspot.com/2006/10/how-to-use-ccleaner.html

if it's a program file you should be able to go into your add/remove programs section in the control panel..

You haven't completely deleted it. If it won't go away from "add remove programs" in the Control Panel, go into program files in your hard drive, find the folder of that program, and delete the whole folder.

You can try Control Panel as someone mentioned before, but unfortunately it doesn'always remove the entire program because of additional extensions elsewhere on the drive and the system registry. With some programs you can just go to Start>Programs>"your program"> and then it will give you the option to uninstall. If not then go to Add & Remove programs. After if there are leftover extensions you can try the system's search for files application, type any relevant name to that program and it will find and list them. Then delete them. You can also get a Registry cleaner software to delete the leftover extentions in the registry after you have used "Add & Remove Programs". Good luck!

highlight it then hit delete\n\nIf that nifty little thing sits on the tool bar of your browser then it's probably a program you downloaded.  Try removing it using the "Add and Remove Programs" if you are using a Windows OS.
