I recently un-installed my trial version of MS Office 2003. The un-install was less than complete leaving my Windows XP Registry in a mess with nearly 130 invalid registry keys and unable to open any .chm Help files. I found an excellent freeware product, RegScrubXP, that easily cleaned my Registry in one pass, locating errors that more high profile and costly products didn't. This also begs the question if Microsoft can't get an un-install right... ?
