I have SQL installed, but as far as I know, I never use it. I don't even know what it is/does. Can I uninstall it, or will that stuff up some programs?
it provides backbone services for a ton of other applications... if you aren't sure, best to leave it alone.
If something used it, it would have been something you installed. Nothing by default in Windows should use it.
Start->run-> type cmd hit enter, then type the following and press enter...
sqlcmd -s localhost -q "select * from sysdatabases"
what comes back?
