How to (completely!) uninstall and reinstall faulty OE6?

[Lobster]

My installation of OE6 is in a mess, it keeps crashing etc, so as a
first step in repairing it I want to do what I'd usually do with a dodgy
program - just uninstall it and then reinstall it.

However, when I try to do that under XP Home's 'Add or Remove Program
Components', all that procedure does is remove OE from the Start menu,
and then replace it when I reinstall.

Is there a way of removing it properly? I don't want to manually delete
the OE folder; I expect that would make a total mess of things, right?

Or is there a way of 'repairing' the installation that I don't know about?

Thanks
David

Ask in an Outlook Express newsgroup.

Thanks - fair enough! I had looked for one, but hadn't been able to
find one (just various odd OE subgroups in different languages!) but
have had another go, and now found one.
