I’m running windows xp and performed a system restore about two days ago. I have two questions about this. Before doing the system restore I had installed a program and did not want anymore and wanted to remove. However, I did the system restore and before this I forgot to uninstall the program. My question is, is the program still hidden somewhere in my HD after a system restore even though it’s no showing it. If so, how can I find it and remove it? Second, my system seems to be running slow. Is this normal after a system restore? If not, how can I fix it?

Thanks for all the help

You can check the rgistry to see if there are any keys associated with the program you didn't uninstall before the restore.

Basically you do a manual uninstall of the program.
