If you want testing for Notes client services running and forcing them to shutdown is advisable. Also one Notes client is uninstalled the removing of the program directory is a good idea this way if any files are left behind from the old client it will be removed, Caution should be taken if you installed and add-on software that puts itself in the Notes program directory. In this case don't force a removal of the program directory. The is a program called N.I.C.E that you can run that scripts alot of the cleanup. http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21459714
