By the clock are icons of all running programs. Find the one for the "Pest Trap" and exit the program. Then try to delete it.

Start up Windows in 'Safe Mode'. From there, you should be able to uninstall the program and then run any removal software safely get of the files that might be left behind.
In 'Safe Mode', Windows only pre-loads the absolute essential code needed to run your system.

Hold down CTRL + ALT and tap the DELETE key and it will bring up your task manager.
Click on the Processes tab and find the program and stop it. Then uninstall.
