uninstall firefox - hawk7771 - 04-27-2006
How would I uninstall firefox completely. Where
would I look in the registry? Or does add and remove deletes it all from the reg. Had a rootkit from sony in the putter. Need to uninstall firefox and then
reinstall it. I have to make sure nothing is left in the browser. Going to do it to ie also, which doesn't get used anyway. Which i believe I can just repair it
and hope nothing is in it to call home. I'm just being carefull or over kill. lol. I do not want to reformat xp.The rootkit is gone now it just getting on line that
is the problem. I'm on dsl and it's like dial up. Thanks for the help and info.

This should take you to the registry file (if any left).
