I can understand that. I was using Trend Micro on my old Dell 8200 and
it was a *major* drag during boot. I didn't try it on Vista, going back
to my favorite, SpySweeper w/AV....

There are two ways to uninstall:
In the Start menu find Webroot | Spy Sweeper | Uninstall Spy Sweeper.
Or
In Add/Remove Programs find Spy Sweeper.

>>>In Add/Remove Programs find Spy Sweeper<<<
Just for clarification in Vista it's called Programs and Features.
