Program in Question : ASPCA Reminder by We-Care.com
Hey everyone,
I was on my laptop last week and noticed something that was never there before. It happened after a file download that had you "accept" or "decline" multiple offers and i must have clicked accept by accident on this particular one. The program is called ASPCA Reminder by We-Care.com v4.1.22.1
I first noticed the program when i saw this "W" Icon on my Google browser.

I then went into my extensions to disable and trash this program, but was unable to as the trash icon and "enable" button are greyed out, as you can see here.

I then went into add/remove programs to see if anything was there. I found this bugger, which immediately threw a red flag when it claimed it was installed in July of 2013. This was definitely installed just last week, not last year.

I tried to uninstall it, and was unable to when I received this error message

I've already run Malware Bytes, Junk Removal Tool, CC Cleaner, and 2 other programs that were recommended when I looked around for solutions to this. I apologize for not having the text logs as I am currently at work. I can rerun them tonight and post them after if needed, which I'm sure it is :) I did notice a lot of things related to We-Care getting removed when I ran them, but alas, it still exists.
In summation, help!
Thanks guys!
