Just a quick thought:
Why would you want to reinvent the wheel?
Curious as to why you would want to do something like this when obviously
psinfo is a tried and tested tool that does this already.

Not sure if it can do exactly what you're asking, but have you looked at
using the Perl interface to WMI?

Subject: What's installed?
I'm looking for a method to do exactly what psinfo does, grab all the
installed software on a machine. But I'd prefer to do it in a native Perl
script. I've googled extensively but cant find any method of getting it.
I've even looked in the registry but cant find a definitive list of all
programs installed :(
Does anyone know of any methods of doing this?
As I said I know I could use psinfo but I'd prefer native Perl (mainly
because I'm mad :-)). What I want to do is run the script against every pc
in the domain and grab a software inventory of all installed apps on the
domain
