Technical Question.

When a program or software is uninstalled from your computer what actually happens to it?

For example:

I tried to uninstall the Norton Spyware Scan software from my computer. I went into Add/Remove on my Control Panel, but it would not/could not be uninstalled as I received a message from Windows saying that I needed to verify that I had sufficient privileges to perform the uninstall procedure.

However, after I installed Revo Uninstaller, I was able to uninstall Norton. But where does the uninstalled program go? Is it "crushed"?

It just gets overwritten Trunpy, you can download norton uninstaller and get rid of the lot in one go if you like its on the symantic website, how are you doing? long time no speak..

Thanks Scaly !happy!

I'm fine. As I was saying to colonel, I don't post much here these days - although I always read your posts in a non-stalking fashion. !blush!

Good man, actually, I actively encourage people stalking me, so dont worry, hows your pie consumption going?, well I hope.

I've been laying off the pies recently after I had problems when I ate a big juicy steak & mushroom one - I suffered from a long and protracted burping session. !blush!
