Large gap in "Add/Remove Programs"

[Phil]

I have a long gap in the middle of the list of programs in Add/Remove
Progams. The gap appears in the programs beginning with 'M' and when I
scroll down the is just blank space.....them I scroll down some more and
there are think black vertical line.....then i scroll through some more
blank space...then it carries on with pregrams beginning with 'M' !!!!

Does anyone know how I can get rid of the space?

Thanks,

Phil

Hi Phil,

This has to do with a program installed using a - (negative number) for an
icon. Either correct it via the registry, remove the program or contact the
programmer. Good luck!

Not in the M's it isn't. (

Hi again,

Sorry if this is a little think, but how do I know which program it is?
Would it be the one directly above the gap?

Thanks in advance!

 

[Kelly]

Correct.

Kelly,

I have the problem and I don't see any negative numbers. All my
DisplayIcon data are pathnames. Are you saying that what the pathname points
to (the icon file or whatever) ends up being a negative number somehow?
