Do anyone have or know of a script that I can use to safely remove Outlook Express? I need one that I can remove copies from our pc's on the network.

Can't you just go add/remove windows components and get rid of it and then delete the folder in program files. That's what I do for windows messenger and it works fine. If windows is using the dlls, you can just open dos prompt in windows, close explorer and then manually delete the folder using "del C:\program files\Outlook Express". I imagine you would have to manually delete registry entries as well, but the system should run fine if they still exist.

Yea, I could, but I need to do this for over a hundred machines. We use another email client, and I don't want to have OE hogging up any unused space/resources/etc....
