Hi, I previously was on this site and got a ton of help on my brother's computer which then helped me fix the problem myself (sorry for not coming back, J.)

Anyway, now my home computer is having issues, and it's due to "SurfSideKick 3". I can't seem to delete it. There's a directory in my Program Files that when I try to delete, tells me that the program thats running it needs to be shut down. In my HiJack This log, there are 3 entries detailing SurfSideKick that I tried deleting, but they just come back when I re-scan.

Here's my log:

My apologies, but I ran my computer in Safe Mode, ran Add/Remove Programs and deleted the entry for SurfSideKick, then ran the computer normally and proceeded to run HJT and delete the values again, and this time they appear to be gone for good.
