Uninstalling Conduits

Help! I recently installed the Eudora Internet suite. I found it too cumbersome, and I started having problems with my Windows XP desktop(s) siezing up during the synch process. I tried simply "disabling" the conduit in my Hotsynch manager, but the problems continue (and I can't seem to get my VDX to synch with Outlook, despite re-enabling its conduit and disabling the Eudora Mail one).

There is no "Remove Program" entry for the Eudora suite package, only the capability to deselect its synch routine from the conduit menu.

I tried uninstalling the entire Hotsynch package and reinstalling anew, but it seems to carry over all the pre-existing conduits. How do I rid myself of the damn thing?

And please, I just want to know how to get rid of it; I am sure that the Eudora Suite works fine for many people...I don't want to trigger that discussion/debate here, I just want to get it off my system.

Thanks!

I might be wrong here, but I thought on the reinstall there was an option screen that pops up asking if you'd like to 'Keep 3rd Party Conduits', saying no, will delete them all.

In this case...

In the case of the VDX and an installation of Palm Desktop 4.01 you are incorrect. There is no such option. Perhaps I should rephrase the question to: How do I wipe all remants of my Palm Desktop app from my hard drive (Windows Registry, etc.) so that I can do a "clean install"? I am even willing to do a hard reset of my VDX (I have a Memplug, so restoring select apps is no big deal).
