Please please help me uninstall software

itsallaboutthemoney

I bought this software of a site in order to unlock my phone. However, now I think this website is really dodgy and i am desperately trying to get rid of this software but I can't find it anywhere on my computer. I don't know where it's hidden itself. The software is :

winrar
tutorial.rar
software.rar

Could you please tell how to find them, as I have searched for them using the search function on the computer but nothing comes up.

thanks in advance

winrar is a application which will un-install properly its legit it should be in control panel/uninstall

The other two are rare files these are compressed files associated with winrar, these may contain data or a program or worse virus. You cant tell until you open them.

Its most likely to be a doc in tutorial or pdf file although I could be wrong
In software that may contain some data with program to unlock phone

If you go into search and type *.rar that should list any rar files

thanks savemoney,

i want to get all the files off my computer because it didn't work and I don't trust the website i bought it from.

I have put *.rar in the search function in the startup menu in vista and it comes up with nothing..... what do i do ?

nothing then, nothing there. Did you search all the drive(s) or just locally folder?

hey ts,
i just put *.rar in the search box in the windows startup menu. how do i ensure it's searching the entire computer. i definitely downloaded these files because i attempted to use them. also i can't find the winrar program in program files.

where does your browser send dowloads? they will be wherever your browser puts them

In firefox its Tools>options then the "Main tab, second section down is "Downloads" and will give a path to where downloads go. It will be something simular in IE too.

Advanced search check Location is not on indexed locations, select local hard drives

Open up search type rar (say) then select the Search Everywhere. In the new window press select, Search Tools/Search Options tick the box Include compressed files

it doesn't give a location, it just says alert each time. i didn't change the location where it decided to save it to, i just clicked ok.

thankyou, yes the box was unticked. i located one of the .rar files (tutorial) but not the one called software. i actually found the tutorial file by just pressing enter on an empty search box. searching using *.rar for some reason doesn't bring anything up...very strange
