Sorry dude, but we need more info: what program is it? And also speak CLEAR language. I don't want to sound rude or something, but honestly your post is hard to understand

These programs usually dial into an isp on premium rate phone number- and should never be used.

In order to uninstall it, you need to know where it was you installed it. The only way to do this may be to re-install it, paying close attention to the information displayed.

Post again with some more info - and also whatever you do, don't run the program unless you want a super high phone bill.

Right click on the shortcut go to the properties and find out where the .exe file is (it says this under find target) go to the directory and delete it!

Get a spyware remover. It remove programs like that. You can get on at my site. Go here (http://+++++nician.tripod.com/+++++.htm) and click "Free Files" on the left frame. The file is called SPYBOT.

Once you have dled Spybot, install it and uninstall the adult software. Then run Spybot and completely remove the rest it leave on your computer.

By just deleting it like that leaves a lot of mess on your computer, m8.
