Re: Uninstall problem - Webroot

I don't need Webroot anymore, now that I have Norton for both antivirus
and spyware; besides, my Webroot contract has expired.

But webroot gets in the way, particularly on startup, and when I attempt
to uninstall it by any means, a warning box comes up stating that
C\Program Files\Webroot\Webroot Security\unins001.msg is missint, and I
can't find that file by searching my entire hard drive nor by searching
backup files.

Webroot website previously has been singularly uncooperative. What do I do
now?

Reinstall SpySweeper and then uninstall it again. Otherwise use the free
Revo Uninstaller but you need to be *very* careful when using it so you
don't delete the wrong things.
