I think this is the correct area 2 post ?'s re: MSIs - if not, plz. let me know.

Under C:\Windows\Downloaded Installations, I have 3 objects:

1. {DF2E8A41-7E98-427D-9582-7D2EAF44F827} - containing 1 object:
MS Anti-Spyware.msi (Windows Installer Pkg.)
Date Modified: 07/22/05
5.79 MB

Am I correct in thinking this is an old file that can be deleted? Do I just left click & delete or is there more 2 completely removing the item than that?


2. {78CB0701-6520-4FAE-99CE-20DE50BEF25C} - containing 1 object:
MS Anti-Spyware.msi (Windows Installer Pkg.)
Date Modified: 08/06/06
5.83 MB

Am I correct in thinking this is the latest version of #1 & that version was just never removed or deleted from my PC?


3. {EF86FEC5-5132-4392-8DFC-6DE894A634E2} - containing 3 objects:

a. 0x0409.ini (Config. Settings)

b. 1033.MST (MST File)

c. Bonjour.msi (Windows Installer Pkg.)

Title: Installation Database

Can someone explain what #3 (Bonjour, etc.) is & where did it come from?? It is not in 'Add/Remove Programs', there is no 'Uninstall', & I cannot delete it. Do I need to keep it?? If I do not, can someone explain a way 2 get it off of my PC??


Then, under C:\Windows\Installer, I have 161 objects.
They are all in this {...} language except for the last two - they are BWKDlogs and MSN Messenger 7.5.0311. Is there any way 2 change that language 2 normal English so u can easily read each line?
Is this "Windows Installer 3.1" - because I cannot find that on my PC anywhere!!???

(I almost forgot PC info: W.'s XP Prof. ver. 2002, Serv. Pack 2, Intel Pentium III Processor, 797 MHz, 384 MB of RAM.)

Thanking you in advance for your assistance!!!
