Batch uninstall Windows programs with Absolute Uninstaller
So we probably shouldn't be surprised that Cybernet has reviewed another great application for removing programs from your Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/Vista machine. Absolute Uninstaller loads faster than either Revo Uninstaller or the default Windows Add/Remove programs utility. Like Revo Uninstaller, Absolute attempts to clean up the gunk that's left behind after running an uninstaller.
Probably the coolest feature is the batch uninstaller setting that lets you select a list of applications to uninstall. You'll still need to confirm each operation one at a time, but as soon as one uninstaller program finishes running, another will begin. Overall, Absolute Uninstaller makes the process of uninstalling multiple programs much quicker and easier.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

These products are just what i need. When running an internet cafe you wouldn't believe how much junk people install onto a computer, especially that MyWebSearch toolbar, Porno programs and Online Gambling. Youre never too sure whether its actually uninstalled!
Thanks Download Squad!

RedWing - I'm not sure why you would be allowing people to install software on a public computer, but if you are, you should rebuild the system, image it, and then wipe it and restore the image once a week or so. That way the system is clean and returned to a known state. MS also has a shared computer toolkit just for this type of use. You can also just create a regular user account (non-admin account) and have people use that. That way they can't install anything.

Peter, I would do what you said but when i used to do that i got an unbelievable amount of complaints about a program that someone wants to use wont install. There is a varied demographic of people with Muslims, Nigerians, Sierra Leone people, Polish, French, German and English people and i cant possibly install every program that they would need to use. For example Polish people have there own IM program called Gadu Gadu, and they will COMPLAIN if the program isn't there.
