Default entries left in add/remove software

How can I get rid of entries left behind in the Add/Remove software list
(Control Panel)?

I have 2 entries without the Change/Remove option and the software to which
these entries relate are no longer in my system.

Thanks

WG

RegCleaner, the free version of jv16 Power Tools is still available from
http://www.all-freeware.com/

It will allow you to clean up your Add/Remove Programs Menu and it keeps a back
up in case you remove something you didn't mean to. It is also handy for
removing Start Menu items you don't want like that pesky Quick Time Task
executable that seems to keep coming back no matter what one does.

HTH,
