uninstalling software

Good morning.Just a quick question. I had some difficulty installing a program and its patches{easy cd creator + direct cd]. I uninstalled it  and reinstalled a  couple of times and it finally took. The problem was with the "patch". Anyways, my question is when you uninstall a program, I know their are files that do not get uninstalled.When you reinstall, do the files get overwritten? In other words do I have mulitple file I do not need?
Thanks

Billy,
the files will not duplicate.  They will either overwrite them or not install them.  You will not have any "extra" files unless it is installed in a different directory.  From what you say this did not happen.
Hope it helps.
