Everything I've found says its o.k. to delete it. I would certainly make a restore point first though. Have you tried Revo uninstaller? I highly recommend using it. (I've used the free version for years)

So sorry I miss posted. It belongs to the family of REVO so as indianacarnie has posted REVO Remover should be able to get rid of it.
Let us know how things go.

Here is a site with a lot of good information.

Is this safe for a novice to use? Read some pros and cons on it so I am not sure.
The only reason I want to get rid of clearfi is for some reason
it is sharing port 1900 udp with svchost.exe
I never do any media sharing anyway so I thought I would just
get rid of it.
If I uninstall it in programs and features it should end the process
so I don't have to kill it with every boot
I allready have it off of start up
I am not to concerned with a few leftovers

Made a restore point and did the uninstall through programs
it's gone from ports and task manager as well
Thanks for all your help :)

The question is why was clearfi running and opening those ports. That makes me think it is time to check for infections. I have never used clearfi so I have limited knowledge of it. If it was my computer I would scan for infections.
