Help with uninstalling program in ADD/REMOVE


I have been having problems installing a new program (InterVideo DVD
Creator2) and finally gave up and tried to uninstall it from the
Windows XP Home ADD/REMOVE utility.

Although I cannot find anything in the program folder and the icon
has disappeared, I still find the program listed in ADD/REMOVE and
when I try to remove it I get an error message saying..."error
extracting support files. The system cannot find the file specified."

Can someone offer an explanation for what is happening (or not
happening)? I also tried to uninstall the program in another uninstall
utility called Easy Uninstaller and get the same error message.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
