Formatting a disk will effectively delete all of your operating system,
including the registry. If you did a clean install after formatting, then
the entries you mention could only have gotten there by your installing that
software again. On the other hand, if you got your operating system running
again by doing a restore, then you formatting did not get rid of anything in
your registry!

In reading this note from Al, reminded me of when I was looking at my
Registry yesterday and noticed I still had McAfee, Norton's and some other
firewall mess still in there, although I have formatted my HD. I would
like to know if ALL stuff stays in there such as what Al mentioned before,
and what good does it do to format if it's still hanging in there?
