Download, install and update Malwarebytes, and update your Spybot Search &
destroy and your Anti-virus.
Then go into Safe Mode, and scan your system for the rogue Malware.
Use Malwarebytes 1st.
All info below re Program downloading, and getting into Safe mode.

Spybot Search & Destroy 1.6 is a very good, FREE Anti-Spyware Program.
Download, install, update, and immunize your System with it.
Then SCAN with it.
Update it, and scan your System once a fortnight.

Malwarebytes is as the name says, a Malware Remover!
For the Free version scroll down their page to either download from
Download.com, or Major Geeks.com
Download, install, and update.
Important re: Safe Mode
If you happen to find a problem that you can’t uninstall / delete, reboot
the computer, and go into Safe Mode.
To get into Safe mode, tap F8 right at Power On / Startup, and use UP arrow
key to get to Safe Mode from list of options, then hit ENTER.
RESCAN your computer with your Anti-Virus, Malwarebytes and Spybot S & D

Hi Mick, Thanks for this information, I will do as you suggest. I had a
free trial with Norton and after uninstalling I went to AVG free and am
using the windows firewall. Hope I have done the right thing! I try to use
freeware to save costs. Thanks again. |

Which specific program are you trying to uninstall? Ascentive's site
has specific instructions on how to uninstall each of their programs:
'Removing Software from your Computer'
(http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/guides_remove.phtml)
'User Manuals and Step-by-step Guides'
(http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/manuals.phtml)
Hope this helps!

Ascentive Performance Center |

I have had the same problem after getting hijacked by Ascentive Performance Center. After days of wrestling with the problem and using several different malware scanners, I finally stumbled upon Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. Free download. Takes about two hours to do a full scan, but it will ferret out every last piece of Ascentive and remove it (along with a lot of other crap).
