After much trouble, I finally uninstalled EMC 8 using Windows install cleanup. The software is gone from add/remove programs. However, when I did a search of all files and folders for Rox*, all kinds of files show up. Why are they still there and how can I get rid of them? Also, when I boot up the machine, I get a runtime error for "Program Files\CommonFiles\RoxioShared\SharedCOM8\RoxWatchTray.exe" Why can't I get rid of this program? :)

Delete all of the folders, manually.

And, you might benefit from a program such as Regseeker which is helpful in cleaning out the registry. A quick google will find it for you.
