I'm having a little problem with your statements. When you say that the program was not
there after your first installation attempt, nor was there anything in the CONFIG.SYS, but
the installation files WERE on you hard drive, I find all of that hard to believe.

1. Do you have any lines in your CONFIG.SYS like the following:

IFS=C:\CDWFS\CDWFS.IFS
RUN=C:\CDWFS\CDWFSD.EXE -p "C:/CDWFS/TEMP"
-c20000 -b2048 -t2 -i3 -s0

If you do, then you still have vestiges of the installation

2. When you install RSJ the desktop installation folder (the one with the
various program objects and online documentation, etc.) will probably be placed in the
top left hand corner of your monitor (I just did a reinstall to confirm this). On my system I
have the InJoy firewall window residing there. The RSJ folder was underneath the InJoy
window and hidden from direct view. I suspect something like that happened to you.

3. You are supposed to uninstall RSJ by using the installer,
CDWOS2US.EXE, and pressing the "Uninstall" button. You are not supposed to
manually uninstall/remove files.

4. Try using "Find Objects" utility to locate all objects on your desktop.
This utility is contained in the OS/2 Toolbar. I'm not sure if it is only in the Toolbar (built
into it), or if it is part of OS/2 and the Toolbar picked it up.
