I'm glad you have solved the problem yourself

Good work. And thanks for the email by the way. I only briefly searched through the Optus web site for any clues. I see a more in-depth search was required.

This is a link to your previous discussion;

It allows people who read this to check back and see where your post here started out from. I have also linked to this discussion from there, just to close it off. It's a shame I can't merge this with that discussion to tidy things up.

Now that you have solved your problem I am not sure why you are asking about uninstalling OE through the Add/Remove Components option of Add/Remove Programs. But perhaps others here will let you know if they have used that method to solve problems or not.
