Thanks

I have done searches including hidden and system folders and files for and Sony ebook library and reader and deleted all that had anything to do with it. Also did search and removed in registry. I even used installshield program to break the setup program into it separate parts and examined what it may be looking for. I think it is looking for a product number which identifies what version, but I can't find it and Sony won't tell me what it is. It is probably a alpha-numeric string of numbers that is not identified by the tags of Sony or ebook library or reader. My fear is that it got corrupted when the program crashed and was not removed when I uninstalled. Now the install program looks for it and sees a higher version number due to the corruption. I hope it doesn't read higher than 3.1!

As you can probably tell, I'm not exactly a novice when it comes to this stuff, but this has thrown me for a loop. This almost ticks me off as much as Microsoft not allowing a direct upgrade to Windows 7 from Windows XP!
