I tried re-installing and then uninstalling the program
and it does not work. I noticed that when I re-install the
program it can be, let's just say 8MB, but once I try to
uninstall, it doesn't disappear from the ADD/REMOVE
program, but it goes down to about 3MB. I suppose those
are orphaned files. Is there any program that can get rid
of that, like Windows Cleaner or .....?

The install.log/uninstall.log usually contains the
uninstallation information about a program. When you
remove a program from Add/Remove Programs, the log files
come into play and remove the corresponding software
entries from the registry and the files in the hard disk.
If the LOG files are missing, you may need to reinstall
the application again (in the same path) and then try a
clean uninstall again. In some cases, the application
might be removed, but the entries may still exist in the
Add/Remove Programs applet. Orphaned entries are usually a
result of a system restore rollback operation.
