cant uninstall...! by jesiejane on 07-15-2004 at 03:13 PM

my boyfriend recently sorted out my computer for me and for some reason i can't uninstall messenger plus 3. I am also concerned that my history is always empty. Has he put some kind of parental block thing on?

Well if you change your internet options you can set your history not to delete so often. And if you can't uninstall Plus! try using add/remove programs.

Thats the wierd thing, my history IS set to clear every 20 days...?

Also it is in Add/Remove programs that it will NOT allow me to remove software.

Im worried that he is remotely saving my history or remotely accessing my stuff somehow.

Well if you are not the admined user you wll not be able to in/uninstall Plus! But if he were to remotely access your stuff it would still have to be there unless he took it saved it then deleted it.

It would help if you can post exactly what error you see.
Word of advise: talk to your boyfriend :)

agreed, also, there is always the "manual" uninstall by using regedit and DOS to remove all traces of it, but then again, if it is the admin issue, dun think u can do that :S
