Cannot remove Name From Add/Remove panel

[Bigpom1]

I run Windows 98SE and recently loaded a program called "Powerquest DriveImage 5". I have tried to unload this blasted program and the name still shows up in the Add/Remove programs in Control Panel. I think it did unload but although I have done a registry search, I can not be sure.I feel sure there is a way of removing names from Add/Remove programs but cannot remember it. I tried to load TweakUI but it wouln't load for some reason or another. Can anyone assist?....Dave

May also want to use RegClean 4.1a or similar

to clean the leftover remnants of the proggie....ClassId's, TypeLib, and Interface keys in the reg....and will break the links to whatever it's still linked to.
small, free, and simple.
