Problem uninstalling a program?

I installed TuneUp program then wanted to uninstall it but there seems to be a problem. Then I did a system restore and it keeps saying that nothing has changed. So i deleted everything in Program Files but still 6 files remain. Every time I want to delete them it says that the program is running it cant delete it. So i opened task manager and tried to end task but every time i go to click it, it disappears. It is always running and i am wondering how i can permenitly delete this program?

Update:

is there a program i can download to remove it?

    Uninstalling TuneUp is very troublesome. It does not allow users to completely remove it.

    You can try third-party uninstallers like Revo Uninstaller or others that will do the job for you. You can also use Unlocker that will unlock any file you want to delete/copy/change.

    Try Revo, if it does work, you can give it a try on others listed in link.

    Try this link for other un-installers.
