I might just mention that you have to "F5 Refresh" Add/Remove Programs to be sure your entry is gone or not. A/RP doesn't refresh automatically. Of course, closing and reopening A/RP would refresh also.

It sounds like you've corrupted Add/Remove Programs somehow. You can use the msizap utility to make A/RP "forget" about your product, but use this only as a last resort. You should do all testing of your install in a controlled envrionment, like using VMWare or Virtual PC. > Looking through my log for the reinstall, it appears that Remove isn't set > to ALL.

It could be a problem, but its hard to say without debugging it myself in front of your computer.
