I recently tried to uninstall a programme called pc-
cillin from my pc, it is an antivirus programme when i
tried to uninstall it I got a message to the affect that
it cannot find PNT 2K.msi, Iassumed this is part of the
unistallation file and that it may be missing, I did a
google search and found the file,I then downloaded it but
to no avail.
I now see in add and remove programmes that pc-cillin is
still there but does not work, I now DON'T have the
option to change or remove this option has disappeared.
My question is, is there anyway of removing programmes
completely other than through add and remove?
Ive tried my computer>explore then removing the programme
that way but ti is still there, any help would be
appreciated.

Many thanks
