Deleting messages

Hi Mark, delete the whole The Bat! directory, and the reg key HKCU / Software / RIT, and you're done. BTW I hear-say that a new (near future) install version of TB should also install a correct uninstall facility. However, your message is an example of an HTML attachment that cannot be deleted.

Thanks for clarifying this, Ming-Li. There are, of course, some differences between platforms (e.g., availability of acls and auditing of registry objects in the NT/2000 family). There are also tons of reg keys that you simply won't see on an 9x machine. Most non-platform-specific software, how
