In the Add/Remove programs in the control panel, there are itmes in there
that I can not get rid of. I click on the "remove button" and it just
does...well nothing, or i get the "fillinaname.dll" can not be found. I guess
this isnt a real huge poblem just an annoyance.

Thanks
Chris
 
Start > Run > regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
Expand the uninstall key and under that u will find all the prog that u have
installed on the computer.Choose the prog that u want to uninstall and right
click on that and click delete.That will uninstall the prog for good.Restart
the computer.

Click to expand...

Try downloading ForceDel, a utility that works with all Windows versions to
force delete stubborn files. The program runs from a DOS command window
(click Start, Run, and type "cmd"). Enter forcedel filename to give the file
the boot for good.
