Don't worry--that's quite normal in XP. Uninstalls often leave the
Add/Remove entry behind. It's not doing any harm.
There's software around if you want to clean it up. You could Google for it.
Or you can delete the entry manually, but it means editing the registry.
I've no doubt the instructions would be available on the Windows Annoyances
website.

A program I like to use is called MyUninstaller
(http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/myuninst.html). It works in conjunction with
the Add/Remove Programs utility in Windows but also offers the option to
remove the entry from the list. You could go into the Registry to do that as
well, but this is much easier!
