I've installed a program that's installed MySQL 4.1 on my C: drive. When I uninstalled the program, MySQL was still there.

I've got 4 questions:

1) How do I uninstall MySQL? It's not in Add / Remove Programs, and it doesn't have an uninstall program. It's in the directory "MySQL Server 4.1"

2) How does the MySQL program (mysqld-nt.exe) start with Windows? My Startup software and Windows XP don't list it amongst startup programs so how's it starting? I wanted to disable it from starting but can't find it listed.

3) From a security point of view, what harm can happen to my machine having MySQL installed?

4) Why would the program need MySQL to be installed anyway? i.e. what does MySQL actually do? I didn't like the word 'server' in the name of the directory!

Thanks!

The hard drive on my PC is nearly full. I've done a clean-up which has freed some space but there is nothing else I can delete. What would be the best way to expand the memory on the hard drive? Would an external hard drive do the trick? If so how do these work?

As you can probably tell I know very little about computers so please be kind!

I can't lose a Trojan backdoor virus. Whats more when I run a scan there are hundreds of file names come up, mostly porno titles, under a folder that simply doesn't exist where it says it should be. No such folder. Is it possible for this trojan to have made a hidden folder and be downloading into it and if so what can I do short of reformatting?

Of course there adds at the right side, but are they also included right between search results?

(Even if I set Google to exclude words like purchase, dollars etc. it still gives a lot of links to commercial sites which contain these words.)
