    Thank you for responding to my post. Kiwee does not show up in the list of programs to uninstall. Also the Kiwee program in vista showed up under Program Files(X386), but does not have any uninstall or anything else that has .exe.:confused

    Mark;
    I just wanted to say thank you for your help.
    Killbox and unlocker could not delete the files. But I just wanted to put it here for other people to know that I had to go to MSCONFIG and disable it from there, restart the computer, then go to the KiWEE folder and delete it. It worked. Once a gain, Thanks.:)

    This is what I had done to get rid of this kiwee menice
    First: go to Task Manager Processes > Show proceses for ALL users > and look in that list for anything related to Kiwee and end those processes.
    Second: if it is Internet Explorer then go to Tools > Manage Addons > and make sure it is disabled(If it is in Firefox do the same).
    Third: go to msconfig > startup > uncheck anything kewii related.
    Fourth: safeboot the computer at minimal and delete the kiwee found in C:\program files (x86)\kiwee toolbar . And delete it.
    Boot back into normal mode and vawla. gone
