Windows uninstalls everything properly, never ever leaves unresolved references in the registry, would never whack a shared file needed by other programs and certainly wouldn't fsck the existing settings. :-) And Micro$oft would never ever issue a bug fix that makes matters worse, breaks installations and leaves end users scratching their head as to why a perfectly serviceable computer, by Windows standards, suddenly doesn't wanna work. :-) C'mon! Read all the "independant" reseach on Microsoft's web sites about how this only ever happens in Linux!!! ttfn John PS: I'm sooooo proud of myself DIdn't say winblows, winsucks or other pegroative even once. :-)
