You should use CPClean instead of the uninstallers.  The only time the
uninstaller is really helpful is when you want to revert to a previous
version of code, but with SR or SC, it's much simpler to just wipe it out
completely using this method.  Do keep in mind though that this utility will
remove ALL Check Point software, including any GUIs that are installed.
I've found that it's easier to use this & reinstall my GUI, but you may not.
