Ladmo addict Registered: 04/09/2004 Posts: 524 Loc: Oklahoma	Anyone have any idea why, when I select the Remove programs.. from the Control panel items, that it just hangs on the screen that says "Please Wait while populating the list"? Thanks ladmo

My first step would be to try searching the microsoft KB at http://support.microsoft.com and seeing if they've got a known issue with it, and a work around. _________________________ Tony Fabris

Ladmo addict Registered: 04/09/2004 Posts: 524 Loc: Oklahoma	Nope, no known issues with it...When I finally got it to come up once and tried to delete the offending progam (Windows FrontPage 2003), my firewall blocked it saying that it was trying to launch something else..have done virus/malware scans... _________________________ The only easy day...was yesterday!
