Cannot delete some progs in Startup-

[horst]

Some days ago I unistalled ZoneLabs and installed Sygate.
Everything works perfectly, but when I looked in Registry the Startup
files under "Run" I saw that ZoneAlarm was still there. I tried to
delete it but it told me that this wasn't possible.
I deleted another program I didn't use anymore and it worked.
This means I didn't loose my administrator rights (Win2000).
Is there some hidden bit which allows to cancel or modify this setting
in the registry?
Thanks for your help.

I found the reason!
It was TrueVector which hadn't been uninstalled who "protected" his
"daddy" ZoneLabs!
I reinstalled ZoneLabs and uninstalled it again together with TrueVector
and now they have all disappeared.
Thank you anyway
