The software that you installed, is it some kind of multimadia editing
software? If it is, I'm surprised to hear that SQL Server was also
installed. I have not been able to find any information why it should be
installed.

SQL Server is a database. This is something you need if you for instance
have a magazine and want to keep track of all your subscribers. I think you
should ask a multimedia software newsgroup why SQL Server is installed. It
wouöd be a bad idea to deinstalll it before you know what purpose it serves.
