Lost some software - help!
Posted: Sun Dec 21, 2003 11:41 pm
I made the mistake of deleting some files left behind from an unsuccessful uninstall. Result - complete system bolloxed.I've managed to get it up and running again (well not me but a very helpful, openminded repairer) but have had to reinstal a lot of software.
Can't remember where I found 1 item which warns you if some new programme wants to add itself to your Startup menu, the icon is a little dog and it gives a warning bark. Does that ring any bells?
Btw, is there any idiotproof way of completely uninstalling something you don't want?

PS I had to give the technician a copy of my Cathy Barry Xmas wallpaper.
