Have Windows XP on Emachine T3265 with Athlon XP 3200 processor. Installed premium version WEBROOT software but can't uninstall Mechanix Professional version 10 - thought was uninstalled but still there as is malware. Tried using first of three Emachine recovery disks but I chickened out the second time it warns of losing all data - I think I successfully did this twice before but why do they say will loose data and then we don't loose data - as I recall? Should I try it even after the two warnings?
