Difference...?
What is the difference between uninstalling a program through the Control Panel and uninstalling a program by going to Programs>then the program>and uninstalling....Is one method better than the other or do these both work equally as well?

The only advantage of uninstalling through the program is that it removes everything, icons, start menu folders, etc. Through control panel, sometimes it misses a few things.
