Uninstalled some Programs on my new Vista PC,
but yet, the Programs are still listed in "Programs&Features". Trying to uninstall again results in an Error Message. How can I delete those Entries?
Thanks.

MS has stunk in this regard for many years. Unless you used a product like Norton's or others that fully tracked all install the only for sure way is to do a clean install.

Nuke it from high orbit, it's the only way to be sure man.

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, are in my top 10

To actually get closer to your question.

If you highlight it and press the delete button what happens?
