Deleting files

''when I did a search there are 24 files.''

If you can find them you can delete them.

''how do I know if they are all connected to that easy share program?''

You will have to determine what files to delete.
Check closely in add/remove to be sure that all related programs were uninstalled. Some software will install more than one program.

Have You Checked

to see if the program has an Uninstall choice? Go to Start, All Programs and select your program from the list and there may be an Uninstall selection.
I believe that method, if available, is better than using Add or Remove in Control Panel.
