Old settings keep coming back

Hi all, I am trying to get a fresh install of MT4 from ibfx on a window vista computer, but everytime i install it i keep getting my old settings back. I uninstalled and deleted the interbank folder in program files, but it still doesnt work. I downloaded the install file again, and it works untill i restart mt4, then the old settings come back and i cant login.

Is there somewhere else MT4 stores files on my computer? If anyone can help me with this or direct me to another thread where this problem might have been addressed already i would greatly appreciate it.
By the way this is the demo version

Thankyou in advance, Nick

Yes ... if you duel boot windows, preferably XP Pro........vista is a nightmare, however I will not profane my MAC with windows since there is other charting software that does the job for me.

When you re download the mt4 it will ask you to name the file rename it with an a or b or 1 at the end of the file..e.g in staed of naming it metatrader4 name it metatrader4A

Hope that helps
