You take a good word of the program name. If I have Microsoft PowerPoint installed I wouldn't choose "Microsoft".

Then: start->run->regedit->find

If you find a key containing something about your program you can delete it... Don't mess up anything though, feel free to ask about a certain key.

Good Luck

Safer to use TweakUI to do this if you're not confident about fiddling with the registry.
