I have removed Net Framework 1.0. However, it still shows up in "Add/Remove
Software" on the control panel. If I click it and select remove, it comes
back with an error message that it doesn't exist. How to I get it off the
Add/Remove software list?

Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301

Also:
Removing Invalid Entries in the Add/Remove Programs Tool
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310750/en-us


After running the CleanUp utility, go back into Add/Remove
If the application is still in the list, select it and see if you now
have an option to delete the entry.

Did you uninstall or delete .NET Framework 1.0? Why did you do so?

If Windows Installer Cleanup Utility doesn't resolve this, try this utility:

Good question, LOL. :-)

To the OP: you can edit it out in the registry (if you're comfortable doing
that), or find some utility programs that have the capability of removing
stray entries in the Add/Remove list.
