August,

Thanks for telling us about this tool.

AA>FAILED to clear all data.

Hope that You got it to work better for You.

I looked in the C:\WINDOWS\INSTALLER directory on my XP box and there
are 48 Directories and 201 files in it.

I took a looksee using dir /s/-p and it showed me that all that stuff
was using 758 MB on my drive.

I decided not to bother it by using MSIZAP because it is taking up just
a 'small' space on my 250 GB drive.

Now if that drive space was being used on my 486 DOS/WIN3.1 box both of
the drives in it would be filled up.       ;-)

I just looked at the 486 box and the C:\WINDOWS\INSTALLER directory
isn't on it.
