Default Uninstalling a Programme

Hi
I installed MyPhone Book Dialer and found that it was inappropriate. When I
try to uninstall it I get a box that says "System Administrator has set
policies to prevent the installation " I then click OK (which is the only
option) and get a second box that says "You do not have sufficient access to
uninstall MyPhone Book Dialer please contact your administrator" But I am the
Administrator.
Any help please.

Hello,

are you uninstalling it using a link from the Start menu? If yes,
right-click it and select "Run as administrator".
If not, try opening the program's folder in HardDrive:\Programs\. There, you
should find an uninstall exe or something which you can start by selecting
"Run as administrator".

Hope this will help.
Greetings,
P. Di Stolfo

Run as administrator option not available. Couldn't find HarDrive:\Programs\.
Solved problem by doing a restore to before installation of the program.
