probably would
no longer need the uninstall program...
If anyone has anything to add to answer this or comments on when one should
or should
not delete shared files, etc....or why this process is even kicked back to
the
user....I would love to hear more....My theory is "When in doubt, don't do
it"...but
why isnt the uninstall program taking the same path instead of possibly
allowing an
enduser to render his machine useless or at least create problems....

program or material, have Uninstaller archive the material until such time
you have determined it is safe to delete it. Ben Devoid
