hp computer w/windows xp home service pack 4
my daughter had downloaded some games on my computer and the instant messenger icon was now on my start up bar. (am not computer savvy, sorry if the terms are incorrect) i wanted to remove the im icon and the games. was in control panel, went to task bar & start menu, then classic start menu, customize. went to advanced, then c:, then found downloaded program files. i was able to remove most of the games, but found ArmHelper Control, says it is unplugged. not sure what this is, can i remove it? or is it necessary for other programs? also, i never did find the im program to remove it.

any help would be appreciated. thanks, kixngrins
