    Need permission
    « on: September 01, 2009, 04:55:21 PM »
    I have a program called WINRAR. I believe it is a compression and archive program. Every time I click on it my virus protector: TREND MICRO says beware it has a trojan virus. So I went to the control panel to delete the program. It did so but it is still in my program files. When I try and delete it there it says I need permission to rename, or remove the program. How do I get permission?

    Thanks,
    Peter

    BTW, Winrar is not malware - just add it to Trend Micro's trusted apps (I assume Trend has such an option)
