That's strange. I can use the custom add/remove script and I am in win7
64 bit, and haven't received that error at all. My one beef with that
script is that it doesn't list all programs installed, it missed a
widcomm bluetooth driver that the windows defalt programs list in
control pannel listed. Had I actually, you know, been thinking properly,
I would have tried the custom add/remove script as well as the defalt
programs. So that is my advice that I didn't think of until weeks later,
check both. Sounds rather obvious now but just thought I'd throw that
suggestion out there.
Chris I'm sorry I've never received that error at all. If I do though
I'll let you know immediately, but so far it seems to be working fine,
that script. perhaps it's a conflict with another script?

Hi Chris, I believe that the custom add/remove app only works for XP. So
it appears based on your error below that you are in Vista or 7 and this
could be the reason you are not having any luck.
Many thanks.
