Yep, regseeker is excellent, altough I've found I had to use runas administrator to get it to work properly, even though I was logged in as administrator.

actually, its throwing up stuff when I check, saying that certain extensions aren't being used etc. One example .pl when I know perl is installed. It even through up alot of Illustrator extensions and Ive got it installed. Kinda dodgy to me, will I need to handpick out the "actual" errors myself?

i've never had any probs with selecting all and deleting.

I'm guessing a progam will reassociate with the file type when its run next.
