  I would strongly suggest nobody ever follow this reckless approach to
eliminating BLODAs.

  Always use the service control manager and/or the add/remove programs
control panel, according to whether you're trying to temporarily disable or
completely uninstall a suspect package.

  Don't go manually killing processes or hand-editing the registry, or you
will be left holding the pieces when it all breaks.

    cheers,
