The MS Gate software is used to transfer files to and from the memory stick,
unless he managed to move your software onto the memory stick he can delete
it from the launcher just like any other palm app. The lock symbol in MS Gate
just means you can't transfer that thing to the memory stick, either because
it is in ROM, or because that line is actually a label, not a program, for
example if you write a hack with an application id of 'HACK', you will see
something like this in MS Gate (pardon my ascii art)
[LOCK] "HACK" files
YourHack.pdb
The reason there is a lock on that line is that is a header to indicate the
file type, and you should transfer/delete the .pdb file instead of the header
label.
