I wasn't sure where to post this. I don't think it's a virus or something malicious like that (I could be wrong).
Anyways, this program (FlashFetcher) is from GeoVid, and it had an entry in the add/remove programs list. I removed it, but the GeoVid folder hung around with some stuff in it. So I tried to just delete it and my computer told me I needed permission to do that. On my admin account, it also wouldn't let me remove the folder. I thought about just going into my registry and deleting all the lines that had something to do with FlashFetcher.dll but nothing to do with any of my system stuff, but then I also thought that messing around in my registry when I don't know much about it is a bad idea. I figured maybe someone here knows what to do (actually I figured that a lot of people here know what to do, but maybe some of you wouldn't mind telling me too). I realize my description isn't awsome, so if there's information needed I'll supply it.
Thanks in advance for whatever help I can find.
Edit: Re-reading I realized I didn't ask anything specific. What I want is to get rid of FlashFetcher.dll specifically and the whole GeoVid folder generally. How can I get rid of it if I can't just delete it in the normal method?
