Default New Mini Cleanup - 02-11-2009, 09:15 PM

Ordered refurb mini at 1530 on 2/7, 3-5 day lowest cost delivery, arrived 1930 2/11 via late working Fedex. Very clean mini, easy start up and wireless connect, no other names, passwords, etc to deal with.

Question, All Programs list shows unneeded stuff like messenger and box.net, right click to delete and it refers you to the Control Panel's add/delete software. Went there first and they are not listed as individual items. Cleaned up some easy stuff and My Computer shows C: total size 7.07 gb, free space 2.87gb.

Larger memory shipped trying to decide between 32 and 64 gb Runcore.

TIA for any suggestions.

Messenger for example is a Windows program and can be deleted from the add/remove software window. Look for the part either along the side or top that refers to windows programs. I get mixed up between Vista and XP but it is there in that window. Click on it and it opens to where you can add/delete windows programs like the games etc.

Thanks BirdDog, I have XP and had forgotten about those side boxes - kept looking on the general list.
