>    We're in the midst of changing remote backup and file storage

> A while ago I worked with a technician to install the correct software on
> all three of our computers in order to use this new service . My computer
> has an issue when it comes to removing old and unwanted applications via 
> the
> "Add/Remove Programs" option in the Windows XP Home Edition Control Panel.
> The technician tried removing an incorrect installation of the new cloud
> storage application but Windows Control Panel would not display the
> "Add/Remove" Program list. It's the list of installed applications that is
> generated after that option is selected within the Windows XP Control 
> Panel.
> Who wants to wait around for several hours for this list to be built so
> programs can be removed?

>    A friend of mine told me that there are stand-alone applications that

> programs list to be created. I'd be curious to know if any of you have
