Use CCleaner / Tuneup to un-install any sw.

For now try tuneup and ccleaner.

Thumbs up Re: Deleting Unecessary Files

+1 for Ccleaner.
Also, I would recommend you using "Revo Uninstaller" for un-installing your s/w. It cleans the system from every unwanted trace of the s/w.

i guess what u mean is u have already uninstalled the softwares however the empty folders are still there in the program files. if that is the case then u can go ahead and delete them. however u can try Ccleaner as suggested above cuz it has a wonderful functionality f removing stale registry strings[wteva u call it ).

CCleaner+Wise Registry Cleaner
Remove the folders(used by softwares which you have removed now) which these can't delete manually.
