Control Panel - Add or Remove Programs

[Guest]

Recently I noticed that when I click on "Add or Remove Programs", my list of
progams only displays 6 progams with the remainder of the window blacked out.

It makes management/removal of items not shown impossible.

I tried reinstalling SP2 to no avail.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am having trouble just opening my control panel, it opens but then the rest
doesnt load and it closes out and my start bar disappers, but then loads back
up a few seconds later. So I can't get into my add/remove programs and I
would like to remove somethings from my computer.
What's wrong with it??

Try running the edit on Kelly's site, line 256, " Restore the Control
Panel": http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

If that doesn't work, have you run a recent and thorough scan for
malware using a variety of programs, running them in safe mode?

Thanks, Rock. He needs to post the last program listed and/or follow the
info I have provided. As to date, no one either takes the time to read or
they simply don't understand it. I wish to know which it is!
