    You may uninstall UpdateStar from your Add/Remove Programs window.

    In your case, you just delete the directory/files.
    Start RegEdit and go to:

    - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\
    - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE

    search for UpdateStar and delete the entry.

    Also search in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
    and delete the entry

    In Windows Explorer, go to individual user settings and delete relevant program references.
    eg. C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
    C:\Documents and Settings\%YourUserID%\Start Menu\Programs
    C:\Documents and Settings\%YourUserID%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
