I ended up downloading Windows Antivirus Pro on accident and I just can't seem to get rid of it. How do I go about removing it?
 
Don't have a uninstall program?
 
Had a problem like that before, do you have CCleaner? I use it once when Zonealarm refuse to let me remove it
 
I am not able to uninstall it using CCleaner.

That Antivirus Pro is so annoying.
 
install malwarebytes update it, reboot and go into safe mode and run malwarebytes. It should clean it out.
