Hi :)
Yes, thanks Doug.  In Xp its

Start "button" - "Control Panel" - "Add/Remove Programs"

but it can't add programs and does a really bad job of removing them.  Usually 
programs provide their own uninstaller but again those seem to be less than 
great.  I think Revo-uninstaller is the one i was looking for so thanks guys 
for that suggestion :)

I have a feeling that i really need to reinstall Windows after deleting it's 
partition and then apply all the updates and reinstall just the programs we 
need without the tons of junk that got added but that could take days and days 
on the slow machine.  Plus the installer Cds are missing for some of the 
programs.  So, i was hoping i could avoid it.  Revo might be the key.

Many thanks all! :)
Regards from
Tom :)

Windows has its own uninstaller.  In Win7 go to Start menu>Control Panel>
Remove programs.  I guess there's the equivalent in XP, but I can't go to an
XP system right now.  I don't know what these things do the the registry.
