Title: MapInfo still locks up after re-install

This is the 2nd time this has happened to me now.      
I was exporting data with the GoogleEarthLink utility, but there must have been too much data, as CPU usage shot up to 100% and I ended up leaving it running overnight. It was still running (but not doing anything) 22 hours later, so I had to end it using task manager as I could not afford another totally unproductive day.

When I started MapInfo again,  CPU usage instantly shot up to 100% and MapInfo was "unresponsive", didn't even get to the "do you want to open any of there?" pop-up.

I first tried the option to "repair" the installation, with no effect, and I have now uninstalled GELink and MapInfo (which also mutilated my network profile), reinstalled both and the behaviour persists.

Last time this happened the IT department ended up handing me back a re-formatted PC, and I don't want that to happen again, so I hope someone can tell me what files (or registry settings) are left behind when you uninstall MapInfo, and which of these are used by MapInfo when it starts up.
