    You mean dogz 5? A game where you look after dogz? I don't see why this should be installed messily. Are you sure you chose uninstall instead of repair/whatever that some programs bring up? Maybe just the save games are left over? You might be able to safely delete what is left. What is left over after you run the uninstall?

    Hi,
    Yes that is the programe. I have selected un-instal from the 3 options. I am then asked if I want to un instal everything, I click yes & then after a few minutes it gives me list & asks me to click yes to remove these. I click yes & get the message that it has been un-installed. But when I go back to add/rem prog it is still there showing 450mb.
