Thanks for the reply. but, I have tried removing them from
registry but they are not listed there. KB article 247501.
There are like I say about a hundred or so and they are
cluttering up the list making removing programs tougher
thatn it has to be. If possible I would like to remove
them. any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ian
