    "??????????" is actually the name of the program. I'm assuming that it is a Java program because the app icon is the Java coffee cup logo. The name of the publisher is 3g.net.cn. It's a Win 7 computer. Any ideas on how to remove it? All help is highly appreciated.

    Thanks Tim. Revo sure is a pleasure to use!

    Unfortunately, the program is still listed in Control Panel.

    Revo starts the program's uninstaller which still ends with the response that the program cannot be uninstalled.

    Then Revo goes through it's additional magic, leaving me on the registry entry screen. There is only one entry (7 deep so Revo calls it 8 entries). I haven't removed it yet. Should I?

    If this doesn't work, are there other things I can do?

    Thanks,
    Steve

    Not really. The cn in the name means China. Your computer doesn't have Chinese fonts installed so it replaces the Chinese characters with question marks because it can't translate.

    If you want it gone then yes, remove it.

    If the program is recent, how about restoring to a time before the program was installed.
