Mike you may want to look into the registry at HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall I believe you will need to filter the keys below a bit since I seem to have keys for programs I already deleted as well as keys that are either empty or contain value "SystemComponent":DWORD=1. I'm not 100% this is the list you want but I think so. Jenda =========== [EMAIL PROTECTED] == http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz ========== There is a reason for living. There must be. I've seen it somewhere.
