John, people seem to be relying too much on SR. Taking it back 6 months,
means he has to reinstall all the MS updates since that date!
Wonderful if it includes SP1.

Also, programs the OP installed will be gone.
I consider SR bad advice, unless the last solution before reinstall.
Or using it to go back a month, at the max!

I've always found that, when having problems uninstalling software, it
sometimes helps to actually re-install the program first and then try
uninstalling it again. In most cases it is quicker than trying to
troubleshoot the problem.

Another option, assuming the program hasn't been on your PC for ages, is to
see if you have a system restore point prior to when you installed the
software. If you have then restore back to that point.
