OT: Brief help with this computer problem?

Learning the registry can be a very rewarding experience. But so are most things that require some actual brain work. Just like Dominions.

THanks much folks.

Just to finish this thread off:

I deleted the folder, DLed and ran CCleaner (a few times), and it's all ok it appears -- except that HommV Demo still appears in /system/software with 750MB, and hitting "remove" still doesnt work. Weird!
Should I worry?
thanks much

That can be removed by deleting the corresponding key in the registry (by hand of course). CCleaner won't delete it because it thinks it is still used (and in a way it is).

In other words, it's probably simpler to just leave it there. I'm not sure if I remembered to explain my earlier post, but I've also had some demo games stay even after their removal. I never dared to try messing with the registry, because it isn't that big of a problem.

Thank you very much.
