Ahh i remember when i first started rooting and I got that
Basically you cannot root Wildfire 2.2.1 using unrEVOked
When you have

Gold-carded your SD card
Downgraded your hboot to 1.01.0001
Obtained S-OFF
Downgraded your Wildfire to Android 2.1

Then you can use unrEVOked, use the link in my signature for an easy guide on how to root your Wildfire 2.2.1, i used 3/4 of the method to root, the first bits i did by myself
Btw you might want to read up a little about rooting itself just for some knowledge about what your actually doing
