I went to Add/Remove Programs on my Start up menu and tried to remove Clamwin, and when I clicked Remove a pop up came us that read 'Exception EPrivelage in module unins000.exe at 00021FF9. Priveleged Instruction.' It won't let me remove it. Help me please!

You might try and remove it from the menu Start, All Programs, ClamWin, Uninstall. If that doesn't work, get back here.

Yeah I'm logged in as an administrator. And that's what I did, I went to the Start menu and pulled up Add/Remove Programs and clicked to uninstall Clamwin and that little pop ups comes up everytime.

Sometimes reinstalling the application over top of an old broken install will restore the uninstallers capability to function correctly.

On occasion I have deleted the directory for a program that was hard to install. Then I went to Start, Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs and then select to Remove the program. Windows notices there is no program directory and then ask if you want to delete the program.

I suggest you use this a last resort after all else has failed.
