rem create new listener service and put a password on it

C:> lsnrctl
LSNRCTL> start listener

LSNRCTL> status

LSNRCTL> change_password
old password: (hit <enter>)
new password: (enter new password)
confirm password: (enter new password)

LSNRCTL> set password <enter>
password: (enter new password)
LSNRCTL> save_config
LSNRCTL> quit

rem backup registry prior to removing old listener service C:\> regedit

Registry > Export Registry File > <enter path> specify "export range" of "All".
click "Save".  

rem remove old listener service
C:\> regedt32

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
highlight the service "OracleServiceOraHome81TNSListener" hit "Delete".
click "Ok".

you're done.

removal of the oracle server software does not remove databases or services.
there are metalink docs that cover removal of oracle server software, databases and services.
