    deleting napster from my computer
    « on: May 28, 2009, 10:41:01 AM »
    hi im trying to remove napster from my computers hard drive. i had napster installed when it used to be free. i still have it in my computers program files when i open the control panel on my computer. through a facebook chat, i was advised to delete napster by restarting my computer in safe mode. when restarting it i never got a safe mode option. through computer hope, i was also advised to use revo uninstaller but napster still appears in my program files list and when using revo uninstaller to delete it, i get a message saying that the portable drivers need to be updated before i delete napster. i followed the message which said "restart your computer to remove napsters drivers" but it is still showing up. can someone help?

        Napster is not in my start list..it's in my list of installed program files but im not sure if its an installation file or a setup file...its size is 1.68 KB. i tried uininstalling but i get a message saying for napster portable drivers to be uninstalled u must restart your computer. i selected add or remove all components  of napster when that option came up. after restarting my computer, i opened the control panel in my start menu in windows xp which is what i use, went to add /remove programs and napster still shows up. it cant be opened to use. i just want to delete the name napster from my list of installed programs to create room on my c: drive...any other ways to remove it from my list of installed program files?
