Hi Lorraine,

Yes, you should keep these. They are reference points for the updates that
you have gotten from microsoft. If you remove them, you will be undoing
various OS patches and security fixes. Also, done incorrectly or in the
wrong order could corrupt your system.

If you simply prefer not to see them in the add/remove programs list, simply
uncheck the box near the top labeled "Show Updates".
