Shannon,
I know there are programs that will trace exactly what a program is doing 
while it is running.....ie, files, dlls, etc that it is using and reg keys 
that are being referenced BUT I've never used them and don't know much more 
than heresay about them.
I am not saying that this is the best way to approach your problem but I 
have been successful with this method.
1.      create an image of the partition or drive with Ghost, or equivalent 
app.
2.      run regedit and search for all occurances of the product name 
and/or distributor/manufacturer name and delete the keys and values
3.      delete the directory structure under the "program files" folder 
pertaining to the program.
4.      reboot, of course
5.      reinstall program and hope for the best.

Actually, I've been incredibly successful with this.  One caveat is to 
watch out if there are multiple programs from the same company....in that 
case only search and destroy the registry keys for the product name.

Hope this helps,
Cleve
