uninstall program

I installed a version of Trend A/V even though I was warned that there were
compatibility issues with Vista. Now when I reboot I get a warning telling
me about a problem with the program. I went to uninstall it and I get the
message "Unable to get application path. Uninstallation aborted". So how
do I get rid of this program, so I can get rid of the message when I reboot?

Thanks, Andre

Unfortunately, Windows Installer Cleanup Utility doesn't see Trend, so I
don't get the option to uninstall it. I tried again to uninstall the
program using Vista's Uninstall program, but I still get this message:
"Unable to get application path. Uninstallation aborted". I tried to
remove all references of Trend in the registry, but it doesn't go away
permanently. Can you not manually remove things in Vista like you can in
XP? And why can I not delete a folder in Vista? I'm trying to delete
c:\program files\trend micro and I get the message "You need permission to
perform this action". I'm an Administrator - isn't that enough permission?

Same thing happened to me. I can no longer uninstall Trend Micro
OfficeScan.

Anyone had any thoughts on this one?

Anyone had luck even just getting the program to stop running??

Thanks
Doug

Allow me to rephrase. Apologies for any ambiguity.

Has anyone made any progress in regards to removing Trend Micro
Anti-Virus?

Also, has anyone had any luck getting the above mentioned program to
stop running at start up? On my install it runs automatically, and the
'unload' option doesn't even work.

Thanks Dave. Unfortunately none of those are for this particular Trend
product. I appreciate the effort though.

I will email Trend support...
