    I have run NoAdware 3 times and continue to come up with this bubba.wintools program. It was deleted each time and the system rebooted. I located it in C:\program files\commonfiles\wintofolder. I went to it directly and tried to delete it but, alas, it was not to be.

    How do I delete it even after using NoAdware? :rolleyes:

    Usually Wintools appears in Add/Remove programs. If it is not there you might try renaming the folder and seeing if it reappears. If it reappears then there is some other item (aka virus, toolbar, spyware tool) that is restoring it on your machine.

    MS,
    To rename a folder, right click on it and choose rename from the menu.. the name of the folder with hilite in blue.. start typing a new name.

    I do encourage you to try your best with the instructions we've created for everyone to try.
