Attempting to remove this from one of my computers but the Change/Remove button in Add remove programmes does nothing. I've also tried the uninstall option in the start menu with the same result. Does this mean that it cannot be removed or is there another solution?

Thanks.
Do you know where I would find the uninstall logs please? Will they be in Programme files in the Spark folder - not looked but I'm assuming there is a Spark folder.

Synak: The files.log and installation.log were not there.
I've ended up having to do a manual delete of all the files and deleted all references in the registry.
