Guest

I need some help removing a program from my system that does not what to get
removed. I had installed "Business Plan Pro 2003" off kazaalite and it worked
fine. I no longer have any use for it and when I try to remove it using the
add and remove programs I get a message to enter an alternate path containing
a file "bpp2003premier_605_613.msp". I have tried deleting it from the
registry but it dosen't seem to work. If I open the add and remove programs
list its still there but it dosen't have a remove option anymore. So now I
just restored the registry again. How can I get this friggen program off

Usually reinstalling the program will get the option to uninstall back.

Its still in the add and remove programs list. I tried [Start/Run/Regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall] and
deleted the program from there and I also follow some of the other
instruction BUT the damn thing won't go away!!

Have you used the program uninstaller? If so, this is not common at all.
However, not all that odd. Without having that program to read, track and
troubleshoot, I can't offer any further information. Good luck, though and
keep us posted.
