I somehow downloaded netpumper.exe and prutgct.exe from a website that I was visiting. Both programs are spy/adware that were installed in conjunction with each other. I was able to figure out how to remove the netpupmer.exe program, but not the prutcgt.exe (made by PTech).

The prutgct.exe is in my startup/msconfig and will not go away. When trying to delete the file, error message says access denied in both windows and DOS. I removed items for it in regedit, but they just get reloeded when I reboot the computer. What do I do?

Does anyone know how or what to use to get this program removed from the computer? I am very frustrated and would really appreciate your help. Thanks.

p.s. I have attached the prutgct.exe file but you will not want to install it into your computer if you don't know how to remove it.
