Change the name and then restart the system then you will be able to delete and run all the applications.
I have paid for this software 2 weeks ago, had it for a couple of days and now ist gone. So I´m waiting to get my money back.
B. Cannot delete registries. Security Central does the same thing to regedit.exe
C. Cannot delete files because they are still in use because user cannot kill proreces.
So, then what should I do?
Finally, I opened the downloads folder, limited it to only the files I had downloaded that day, found two unfamiliar ones which I renamed to sick *%&*$, renamed the shortcut likewise, then rebooted windows.
It worked great! Then I downloaded a recently released anti-malware from windows:
http://www.microsoft.com/security/pc-security/mse.aspx
and ran a scan of the whole system which took a couple of hours but found 13 infections and removed them. Magic!
