If you mean this : http://www.download3k.com/System-Spe...sSpec.exe.html

It doesn't install.
If you mean something else I'll need a more complete description.

Simply delete the folder you unzipped the application to. The program does not install to the system.

It won't be in program files.
It will be wherever you saved it when you downloaded it.
Just delete the zip file and the folder you unzipped it to, or the .exe file if you downloaded the exe file.
It does not install, it runs directly from the .exe file.
There may be 2 SysSpec entries in C/windows/prefetch that you can delete too if you want.

I quote from the product description :
Quote:
With System Spec you can see, save and print a complete spec of your PC with this no-install, system information utility and perform various windows functions. Additional advanced info includes CPU, drives, apps, display, memory and more.
It's a 'no install' utility unless you downloaded the zip file and it doesn't sound like you did.

edit : I just went and downloaded the program.
I saved it to my desktop, ran it, and deleted it.
Did you just tell your dowload manager to open itwithout saving it?

Don't even worry about it. Nothing was "installed". Why is it annoying you?
