There's no need for it at all anymore unless for some reason you can't use the normal uninstaller.

Well I've found it particularly useful in removing some creative driver installs and general mess that they seem to create, especially when trying to use the audigy or older on vista. I've also used it when going from ATI to nvidia to check that all related bits were removed, and they weren't. That was more of a preventative measure.

Thanks for the heads up.

Personally I find this program to be great for removing certain remnant files that tend to still be there, regardless if you've uninstalled the respective driver files properly.
