I want to uninstall this program but neither method listed in the help file is possible. The program is not listed under Add/Remove Programs and there is no .msi file

Are you sure you installed it properly? Cause here it shows up in the software list as World Community Grid Agent.

I followed the instructions and it said it installed successfully, I don't know what else I could have done, but I can't get rid of it and it slows my computer down to a crawl

Weird.....for now you can just close the program, though.

My computer hasn't slowed down since I installed it. I can hear the hard drive whirring away constantly, and since my computer is in my bedroom this is driving me absolutely bonkers. Problem is, the damned thing won't let me uninstall it.
It shows up in my add/delete programs guy, but won't let me delete because the program is running, and there is NO WAY for me to turn the program itself off. Unless I'm missing something incredibly obvious. I've tried right clicking on the system tray icon, fiddling in the main window, deleting from the task manager, EVERYTHING. I really, really, really hate this. Any suggestions? |

right click the WCG icon near the clock and select exit, then run the install program again and it wil present a uninstall option wich will retire you from the rankings too.
