Can the 30 day trial be removed from my system completely. If so how do I do it as the uninstall in the control panel does not work.

No, not without a low-level format of your system drive. WIthout that there will always be a record that the Trial has been previously installed and you won’t be able to re-install and run it.

I was thinking those lines too len, wonder if you could install it but not run it. if so, install will repair the association in the control panel add/remove progs applet and allow you to remove it that way…

deperate time, desperate measures. start deleting the folders from your hard drive. maybe run a registry cleaner.

Have you tried using the cleanup script?
<http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs3clean.html>

If it doesn’t remove the uninstall entry in "add/remove programs", then do it manually.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \Uninstall\Adobe_c14ac4070fd9614ffe63f4bb533db2c

"Adobe_c14ac4070fd9614ffe63f4bb533db2c" CAN be different.

(Note: modify the registry at your own risk).

I uninstalled CS3 Beta using "Add Remove" in the control panel. I am still running CS2 but whenever I try to open a file in CS2 Bridge I get the message "Licence has expired", obviously CS2 Bridge is still seeing the CS3 Beta version of CS3 somehow. To open CS2 bridge I must now enter it through Photoshop CS2. I am not using CS3. This problem may well have already been handled somewhere in one of the FAQs but I can’t find it, so sorry if I am asking it again.

Any ideas please.
