My 11-year old daughter installed Gimp on our laptop. Shortly after,

open, nor can we uninstall it. In fact, when I try, it crashes the
computer. Any suggestions?
There are two reputable places to get Gimp Windows installers: the
gimp-win project on sourceforge (http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/) for
the 2.4 & 2.6 versions and Partha's site for 2.7 (http://partha.com/).
Everything else is a bit suspiscious, and could have included unwanted
software (trojan or else). Or it's a mere chronological coincidence and
Gimp isn't implied (if you let your 11-yo install anything on your
computer, goes know what else got installed).
As far as I remember the Gimp Windows installation is all under the Gimp
installation tree (no DLLs copied to Windows directories) and it doesn't
set anything in the registry, so erasing the installation tree may be
sufficient to uninstall it completely.
