I have been using MSN 8 as a dial backup to my broadband link and also when away from home. Because of dial access charges I changed to Earthlink. I would like to regain the disk space back that is used for MSN 8, however I cannot find an uninstall option. In the control panel add/remove programs I see three entries: 1. MSN Explorer, 2. MSN Internet Software, and 3. MSN Messenger 5.0. Should all three of these entries be removed. Also is there anything else that I may be missing? I am running on Windows ME.

Thanks

Those three entries can safely be removed. However, if I know Microsoft, you will have to go into the registry and eliminate them from there as well to get your space back.

Thanks for the help. I did the remove and it actually went through an uninstall so it gave me the space back.

Take Care,
