Uninstalling Windows Service

I have uninstalled a windows service (In Windows7) using installutil.exe . This states that the uninstallation of the service is successful, then I restarted the server ( How to force uninstallation of windows service) but the service still runs properly without any problem.

When I try to delete the service using sc delete, it states that the service does not exist as an installed service.

I m using .NET framework 3.5.

Is there any way of uninstalling a successfully???

Stop the service, delete the files and remove the keys in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services

Edited to make HCLM be HKLM. Phonics failed me last night.
