Strange computer issue

I had mailshell spam catcher on my computer, and uninstalled it (using it's uninstaller) since then whenever microsoft antispyware runs it tries to reinstall it. It does that occasionally when I install other programs. I've checked registry, and the whole computer (using search) and can't figure out how to make it stop. Is anyone here good at fixing this crap it's really annoying

Go to the control panel and add/remove programs and make sure its gone.. umm maby check in your programs file and make sure the folder isnt in there.. also maby run a registry cleaner program.. I doubt any of what I said will work but u can allways try lol.

go to start>run and type in regedit.

From there go into HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software and look for the program name. If its not in there then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software and look for it again. If its in neither of those two places then try going to Edit>Find typing in the program name and let it see if any keys come up.

Give that a shot and let me know how it goes from there.
