    Re: Product name

    When a product is installed 90% of the time it will create a registry key for its self, this is normally the same every time a particular program is installed. All you have to do is find which one it creates then make you program look for that key in the registry. They are normally created in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE or HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software.

    Use regedit to look through the registry to find something that looks like the program you are after.

    There are tonnes of Registry access examples on the net, but if you cant find one just say and i will knock one up for you.
