Thanks for your reply.
Check to see if you have the latest version 4.0.1154 as it only uses about
250kb, way down from the 40MB that the older version seemed to. At least
that is what it shows in my Win2000 Task Manager.

You never had a problem removing SAS from your computer?

Took all kind of tools for me to get rid of it. (the last free
version -whatever that was).

Not that I recall

The only removal tool I use is format. Since I use PortableApps for
almost everything these days, when I have installed and uninstalled
many programs to my hard drive, I just start over. Takes much less
time than trying a bunch of cleaning tools.

What sort of problems did you have and what OS are you using?
I had a clean uninstall when I had the free version. I had installed it
under "Total Uninstall" and just used Add-Remove to remove the program and
then I used Total Uninstall to see what was left and it was basically
nothing. I am using Win2000Pro.

I'm also using W2K Pro.

I don't remember the exact problem, I just remember that I kept
getting some kind of error and it wouldn't uninstall. And when I
finally did get it removed, I still had a desktop icon that I couldn't
delete. I had to use some kind of tool to remove that.

I now stay far, far away from SAS.

I've been using both the free and pro versions on a couple of dozen
different systems over the last year or two and have never run into any
problems with uninstalling it. As far as I can see, your problem(s) appear
to be the exception rather than the rule.

Did you happen to take the time to open a support ticket?
