Hi Johnny,

Microsoft has a Knowledge Base article that addresses your exact
symptoms. Please take a look at the article and perform the steps
described.

266668 Add/Remove Programs Tool Displays Installed Programs Incorrectly
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=266668

We have also seen this problem after the installation of McAfee Anti-virus.
If you have this application installed on your PC try the following steps:

To resolve this issue
1. Check the registry for the following keys and values. Re-create any
missing keys
or values.

- [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CLASSES\.htc]
"Content Type"="text/x-component"

2. Restart the Computer. Add/Remove Programs should now display the programs
correctly in Add/Remove Programs.

MORE INFORMATION
================
Apparently, this problem has been addressed in version 6.02 of McAfee
VirusScan
Professional.


Good Luck,
