Default FLEXnet Publisher (Macrovision)?

Do I need this software on my computer? Someone advised me that the program may generate tracking cookies. If I don't need it I'd like to delete it, but it doesn't show on the add/remove programs list.

Default Help Me Please!

I installed the WINner Tweak program thinking I was going to uninstall the FLEXnet program. WINner Tweak is an optimization program. I thought sure, why not. I went through the optimization screens creating back-ups along the way. I carefully read and selected the various options which was surprisingly few. I did more with the deleting of registry errors, shortcuts, etc. It looked like the program stopped working at a point, so I closed it. Then I was prompted to restart my computer for the changes to take effect, so I did. Now my computer is f*cked. I can't open any programs, including WINner Tweak, from windows explorer, the start menu, or through shortcuts on my desktop. Thanks be to God that I can open IE. Please help me restore my computer.
