Oh, I'm sorry!  I just assumed that everyone here already saw my previous posts about 
being completely locked out of Windows!  :)  I ended up having to do a "new" install 
after several repair/reinstalls.  I started with XP Pro SP2, but my CD-ROM was SP1, 
so after all the fireworks were over, I had to update to SP2.  Now I have this format:

C:WINDOWS also
C:WINDOWSXPPRO (the prior install)  

Both of those files list my programs but none of those programs are given in the 
Programs list or in Add/Remove programs.  Some of the programs will open, but Office 
applications won't, and I had to reinstall Java and Flash, and re-activate Foxit. 
 When I use the program again, if it works, I am putting a shortcut on the desktop, 
but that doesn't seem to carry over to the programs list.

No big deal, really, just wanted to know if there was an easy tweak.  I don't think 
I want to mess with the registry right now, although I did install ERUNT and copied 
the registry and saved it.  :)
