There should be a removal script somewhere
Are you on mac or windows?

Here's something to try if you aren't faint of heart; it means going into the registry:

i think ill leave it i have gotten rid of the fiels i think and in the add and remove programes it dosent show any file size so hopefully it means it hasnt had an impact on space and size, also that registary thing didnt work i couldnt even get past stage 1 lol
