The Corporate Sales and Marketing team was trying out some Microsoft Visual Studio's trialware.

Troubleshooting MySQL 2005 and MySQL 2008 redistributable in a Domain environment.

The Graphics Design Team and Market Team, somehow got involved to ensure that everything met Market and Sales policies though a distributive view. So the Design and Marketing team was forced to download the enitre '05 and '08 trialware, which uninstalled the express versions we use daily. 

Now installed are multiple versions of MySQL 2005 and MySQL 2008 Redistributable on Windows 7 Ultimate machines in a Domain environment. It seems to be having a significant impact on the Domain controller in that Group's Server 2008, NOT R2 servers. including a 2003 server, a standard 2008 server; that is a non promotable DC, a 2008 R2 for apps and the real or intended MySQL 2008 redistributable database that is getting more and more corrupted as I type. 

Any ideas on how to handle this.
