    it contains an Install folder and one called OOBE

    and what about this one? C:\Program Files\MSN Gaming Zone

    or

    C:\Program Files\Outlook Express

    or

    C:\Program Files\Raxco\PerfectDisk

    PerfectDisk is a third party defrag program. There should be an uninstall in Control Panel.

    MSN Explorer - It can be removed via Control Panel, Add/Remove Windows Components.

    Outlook Express is a part of IE. It can be removed (from the Start Menu only) - Same as above

    MSN Gaming Zone - First remove/delete the "Internet%GAMES%" entries from Start, (All) Programs, Games.

    Then you'll have to remove the folder in Safe Mode. The "Windows" directory in that folder is in use when booted normally. The MSN Gaming Zone\Windows folder comes back upon a normal boot, however it is empty. Properties show it to be 0 bytes.

    Control Panel, Add/Remove Windows Components. Look for MSN Explorer. That is C:\Program Files\MSN\MSNCoreFiles. I checked, and then removed it yesterday from my machine.
