    Hi:

    I've got WeblinAssistant in my Registry and have UNchecked it in Start Up, but WinPatrol keeps popping up and giving me instructions that I don't understand.

    Can you please tell me how to remove WeblinAssistant from my pc?

    Apparently, Weblin is a kid's program for chat rooms, but it's wreaking havoc with my pc and WinPatrol sabotages my window.

    Many thanks,

    Ann G.

    Hi

    The only likely way to stop WinPatrol from alerting you to this is to remove the application completly, which means if you did install this on purpose to chat with then you wont be able to, if you didnt install this application and dont use it then continue below.

    Do you have this application listed in Add/Remove? if so then uninstall it from their, if you dont have it in Add/Remove then continue below.




    Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.


    • If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going.
    • Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not.
    Notes:

    1. If you run into problems trying to run theREAD & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode. You can running steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:
    2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.
