I would like to know how to remove an item and update still listed in
add/remove programs after I have delted it from my system.

I could not remove them by add/remove so I found the invidual files and
deleted them.

For a properly written application, their listings should be removed
from the Add/Remove applet upon removal. Since it did not, then there
are 2 ways about it. The first is to re-install the applications and
remove them via Add/Remove. The second is to open the Windows Registry
and do manual deletions there. The latter is not recommended for those
who are not familiar with the Windows Registry or do not have a backup
of it.

I removed the proper item from the registry and the items still are listed in
add/remove
