Did you delete the IDL 7 directory after you uninstalled?

There doesn't seem to be much if anything relevant to your problem in
the registry (i.e. no eclipse settings seem to be stored there) and
since you tried this with a new user, there would be nothing in the user
directory that would be causing this.

Are both the working and problematic systems on a domain? If not, is
there any differences in the security policy that may be causing this?
I'm reaching here...

Good luck.
