Daemon tools a real pain

I just can't seem to fully remove Daemon tools from my computer system. It all started when D-tools refused to run, giving me an error message stating that there was no language supported (?). I was then unable to remove D-tools through the control panel, so I simply deleted the folder from my program files folder. However, it still existed on my add/remove list, and the virtual drives I had set before were still existing. I have tried numerous registry fixers to remove d-tools, but none have worked thus far. Can anyone recommend a solution?

If you have ME or XP, try a system restore.

I think yes, it restores the system back to its previous state.

No, it doesn't erase data files, it only affects system files. You will have to reinstall all applications that were installed since the restore point though.
