Michael, you'd think what you said would be correct.  And it is, for the 
current version, under the \uninstall reg key.  But there is no uninstall 
string for older versions.  Weird.

Sure, however the OP said that he had been instructed to remove it from there; 
thus indicating that - at least in this case - that issue did not arise.

That's the thing.  It can be configured not to appear in Add/Remove
Programs.

If you can remove it via control panel, then it can be removed via msiexec
or similar.

>> You'd think this would be easy.

>Not really, if it were easy, Malware wouldn't uninstall it with ease. 
These software packages are designed to be hard to uninstall.

With all due respect, I totally disagree with that statement.
