    I want to uninstall some programs - but they're not listed in the
    Control Panel "Programs and Features." They are:

    Adobe Flash Player 10.x (ActiveX Control)
    Shockwave Player 10.x

    Can someone tell me how to get rid of these?

    Thanks - I tried it but it still leaves a dll file. Can I delete it?
