Check the system date, you are posting a day in the future.

When I open the "Add or remove programs" applet in Control Panel it opens
with a huge gap in the middle. Half the programs (A to L) appear in the
normal manner but I have to cursor dowm more than 100 pages to find the rest
of the programs. What can I do to eliminate this gap? Any help would be much
appreciated.

I am using Windows XP and IE 7.

Ron in Brisbane Australia

Thanks for your help Alan. I will follow up this lead.

Thanks for your comment. In Australia we show our dates as dd/mm/yyyy. In
some other countries dates are shown as mm/dd/yyyy. I hope this explains the
apparent discrepancy.

No, that doesn't explain it. I am in Australia and I see your original
post (as zzron) as being a day out, (I answered you the day before
you posted it) though you appear to have changed the date since (as
Ron)

No that's not what's causing the problem. Your systems date/time is wrong.
You're posting from the future.
