You Know how then you click on it it sometime says

"Please wait while the list is being populated"?

Well mine doesn't go past that, I am only asking because I need to access it to clear up some memory and get rid of programs I haven't used for a year

Thanks for any help <3

click on it, go do something, come back and it might have loaded. if it doesnt, go to the programs location in windows explorer and delete it.

or even try removing it in safe mode.

Do what Kevin said.

It's probably just your system if it's a slow computer.

My old computer had 512mb RAM with a crappy processor. It took about 5 minutes to load the entire list which is totally retarded.

Safe mode may not work, but give it a try.

One thing I have always hated about Add/Remove is you can only remove 1 thing at one time, makes the process of taking off all the trial sotware and such much slower. (Buy a MAC if you don't want to have to do that apparantly)

PS: Vista populates the list as it loads so the list doesn't just "freeze", it just keeps listing everything until it all loads, it's pretty sweet.
