I have used Unlocker through CNet/Download dot com for troublesome problems.

Unlocker @ Download.com

Thanks Cad. Unfortunately, Unlocker only seems to deal with files that are being ornery and not shutting down/allowing themselves to be deleted, etc. My problem is that there are some leftover registry entries/files that are making the program think it's still installed, when it's not.

And since the program was made by Microsoft, I don't think it would be a good idea to go through the registry, nuking all the MS entries.

Search the http://support.microsoft.com site for manual uninstall instructions for that software.

Check out RegMon

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sys...es/regmon.mspx

Run this, then the installer. It will show you every registry the installer reads or writes.

That requires a successful install.

What he needs is for someone who has installed this with Regmon running to give him the log file for it.

Maybe not - The installer has to read the registry entries to know that it's already been installed.

What narf said. RegMon will show the installer opening a registry key to check if it is there.
