I'm wanting to uninstall several game's but the computer will not go to the site. Seem to hang up trying to enter the uninstall site.

Again, what programs are you trying to uninstall?

-> You do not go to a website to uninstall; you run the installer located on your own computer. Without the program names, though...

I'm not trying to go to a website, I'm clicking the uninstall program on my computer and nothing happens. Thanks for your input. George

What programs are you trying to uninstall?
-> You have to provide the relevant details or we cannot help.

Also, you previously stated "but the computer will not go to the site."
-> If you are not trying to go to a website, why report that you cannot go to the site?
