Default Stock boot-anim (help)

A while ago i installed an app called "Boot Animation Lite" and it just swaps the boot animation. I decided i no longer wanted it because it was slowing down my boot time. After deleting it, the animation i installed was still there. I emailed the dev about it and he said to reinstall & put the stock anim back on. I did this, and the mario-bros one i had installed was still there. So i imported a stock one, tried that, with no success. Loaded the "AndroidStock" one from the app menu, and that didnt work.

After becoming furious about it, i applied the stock, then uninstalled the app, used RootExplorer to remove the directory for this app (including the mario-bros boot) and its still F'ING mario!!!!

WTF?

This is irritating as hell, since ive swapped to TelusLite-v4 it takes my phone roughly 20 seconds to complete the boot sequence, but the Mario animation sticks around for about 2-3 minutes. So i want some help removing this, because im bout to pull my hair out over this!

If anyone knows how to restore the stock animation that would be GREAT!

DONATE TO ME
See either /data/local/ or /system/media (look with RootExplorer). There you'll SURELY find a bootanimation.zip, which you can delete
