FWIW see MetaLink Doc ID: 75061.1 Subject: WINNT: Cleaning All Oracle Products From a Machine. Also the Instalation Guide for 8i Rel3 {A85302-01) Chp 8 Deinstalling Oracle Components and Services. I have not tried removing a single home myself but if I were to try I'd be using these as starting points. Bottom line I don't know if a single Oracle home can be removed but I suspect it could given the way the registry is set-up to handle multiple homes.

HTH, Sean :)
