108188 2002-12-22 04:54:00 I want to do a spring clean of the old / trial version of programs etc that have been installed on my computer.

Is there a "free" program I can install to clean up all the dregs left on my hard drive after I have deleted the program.

Many thanks for any info. Merry Xmas!

If you are wanting to chase up all those stray registry files this program jv16 PowerTools (www.vtoy.fi) is free and will do the job nicely.

I usually also use search to locate "left over" files by searching for key words associated with that program and deleting them manually if any are found - you just have to be certain that it is a "left over" file first!

Merry Xmas and happy hunting :-)
