Yes, uninstalling the programs and then rolling back the system to a previous state (before the date when the programs were installed) should help.

win XP home. I just reinstalled antivirus programs twice, but I dont
like it work and want uninstall. Aslo, i want uninstall Adobe
Photoshop. Will the uninstallation remove also registry entries of
mentioned programs?
I want do a system restore then, to return it back to the state when
this programs has not been installed yet. Can I use system restore just
to get rid of registry entries left these programs? Is the system
restore safe for system stability? Or its recommended to use system
restore only in the case of serious errors happens?
