Adware That wont let me delete it.

So i recently got a program from cnet and of course it came with a load of spyware even though i hit decline on all the prompts. I've been able to get rid of most of them but there is one file called couponight that will not let me delete it. It is always running and i can't delete it because of that. When I try to stop the service it is running it says access denied. Im on the admin account though! I have also tried deleting it from the SYSTEM account with cmd but even SYSTEM doesnt have the permissions to do it. I thought I could delete it before it started up. Please help :(

Re: Adware That wont let me delete it.

I always try to avoid those malware ridden downloading sites like CNET and Softonic.

A quick search and looks like that couponight it's a DLL type file, you can find that file with the search function and then should be easy to delete it once it's unregistered... here you can find how. Hope it works.
