I didn't see a technical support/help forum/group specifically for Internet
Explorer 7, so I'm hoping someone on this forum can answer my inquiries
and/or direct me to the correct forum/group(s):

1. How does one entirely delete old Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) browser
add-ons, BHO's, Active-X, etc., that are "currently installed" on IE7, but
disabled, from deleted, previous versions of software, or from old websites?
2. Even if they're not old leftovers or disabled, in general, how does one
permanently delete any "currently installed" IE7 add-ons?

Is it necessary to delete them from inside the registry by searching for
them using the "Find" and/or "Find Next" feature in "RegEdit"?

Thank you for your help/step-wise instructions.

While in IE -- Tools > Internet Options > Programs > Manage Add-ons
