RE: How to remove stuck program

Hi BigDom,

First of all, whenever you are going to install a program that you are not
sure about, ALWAYS manually create a restore point. That way, if things do
not work out correctly, you can always revert back to your previous
configuration. That said, try reinstalling the program. Sometimes the initial
install of a program can fail, but a subsequent one can be successful. If you
are successful in reinstalling it and still don't want to have it on your
system, then you should have no trouble uninstalling it PROVIDING, of course,
that the program's uninstall routine is correctly written (unfortunately,
this is not always the case).
