Uninstall SL before reinstalling it.

SL keeps files in C:\Documents and Settings\[your username]\Application Data\Secondlife\

Try deleting them, too. Your chat logs are stored in your user folder in there, so copy any of them you want to keep before deleting that folder.

That'll give you a completely clean install.

Oh, Vista, my bad. It's not in exactly the same place as XP. I'm not sure exactly where Vista puts the settings, someone with a Vista system is going to have to help you with that.

The "Application Settings" folder may be hidden, so you'll have to tell Windows to show hidden files & folders, too.

Those files may just be in use, and turning your computer off and back on may free them up and let you delete them.
