I've been around this before <gg>.
I do have the hotfix installed. It shows
under "add/remove programs" in the control panel. The
remove program option is not there.
I have my folders set to show hidden files and folders.
I see other spuninst files for other hotfixes but not for
this particular one.
I have looked manually and also done a search for the
file/folder checking the option "search in hidden files
and folders".
It's just not there.
Trust me <G> I wish it were but it's not.
Any ideas??
install again and pray??
