Hi,

I'm having a problem, i cannot find the Add/remove
Software icon in my configuration panel, and the link when
i open the Program Files directory in my explorer to
Add/Remove software also doesn't work!!

I have no idea how this happened (it's on my home pc which
is used by less computerised people as myself
unfortunately)

Does anybody have a clue what might have happened? and
even better, does anybody know how to solve this, so i can
remove some of the programs i don't need any more, and
have no uninstall of themselves

Many many thanx in advance

PJ
