    Default Uninstaller, more files than Vista Uninstaller?

    When I run your spybot uninstaller I get more programs than the windows vista unistaller program.
    Curious to know why this happens.
    They are:
    backweb-88764 uninstaller
    IE4Data
    IE5BAKEX
    IEData
    Installshield information
    DXM Runtime
    MPlayer2
    Scheduling Agent

    Would there be a concern with these?
    Thanks
    Terry

    hello Terry,

    if I understand you correctly you do not talk about the
    Spybot S&D uninstaller but the uninstall info within Spybot S&D compared to the software add/remove listing of Vista.

    Windows tends to not show all installed applications. Your listed applications are not dangerous although we had our issues with backweb in the past. In most cases backweb was more or less useless to the user but through changes on backweb and its affiliates it became part of some software updaters which made it necessary.
