Missing Programs in Control Panel

[Guest]

I want to uninstall a program, but when I go into Control Panel and then into
"Add and/or Remove Programs" there is a blacked out space between those
programs that start with the letter "A" and those that start with the letter
"D" and beyond. I need to track down the missing programs that begin with
the letters "B" and "C."

Any thoughts?

Hi Ben,

Do you have AutoCad installed? If that's the case, see this response from

If that does not apply to your situation, then download my script below and
run it. Post the results here. This script lists all the negative icon
references present in the registry, and sends them to a log file.
