On my C Drive the file Csback.exe is using 24,352 kb so I tried to use the csunins.exe but it tells me that CompuServe is not installed on my computer. I checked my Add & Remove Programs and its reporting it as using 23.61mb and when I try to remove it from there it tells me it is not installed. Now I just want it off . Can I delete it without messing up?

restart your computer,while it's booting up pump the F5
key repeadily,select safe mode from there and then go
into add/remove and remove it from there,restart your
computer and it's gone.

According to http://www.aaanetservices.com/ComputerTips.html Csback.exe is
just the install file for Compuserve.

If that's the case you should be able to delete it with no problem.

Ok, first I did as anonymous suggested (I did use F8, I assumed thats what you meant) I would much rather uninstall the program than delete it. After I uninstalled it in the Add and Remove section while I was in safe mode I restarted my computer and it was still there. So next I did as Hillbilly suggested I deleted it and the uninstall program, emptied my recycle bin and restarted my computer. It is not in explorer but it is still in the Add and Remove list, the 26 mb is still being used by it. I went into the registry and there are many entries for Compuserve so I would think it had to be more than just the installation file. This computer only has 8 gb so I could really use that space. Any more ideas
