Programs Cannot Be Uninstalled In Vista?
,----[ Quote ]
| Possibly after one of the latest updates in Windows Vista, two strange things
| happened: first, the Uninstall option is no longer available in the Control
| Panel when you right-click on older programs (most likely, those installed
| prior to the update in question, because uninstall works fine for recently
| installed programs — the Uninstall button is also missing on the toolbar at
| the top); second, some programs are no longer shown on the applications list
| in Control Panel (e.g., Yahoo Messenger).

| Users are advised to review knowledge base articles that refer to the
| particular version of .NET and Windows they are running for more information,
| which are listed under the "known issues" section of the bulletin.
|
| The SANS posting, and feedback we're hearing, suggests the problems some
| users are experiencing are more than these knowledge base articles might
| suggest but at least these postings provide a starting point for users before
| they refer outstanding issues they might still be having to Microsoft or
| their support partners.

| Patch Tuesday is coming up and again work will grind to a halt as
| techs spend the next few days deploying what amounts to a huge
| payload of patches for the month of February 2007. This month
| we're looking at five critical updates related to Windows
| security, two relating to Office security and one relating to
| Windows OneCare Live, Microsoft Antigen, Windows Defender and Microsoft
| Forefront; plus a host of other lesser related patches, 21
| one in all.
