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"?
