The buttons to uninstall/remove etc. no longer show up...and I don't know why. It just all of a sudden started doing this and now I can't get rid of anything. What the hell happened and how can I fix it?

Here's what it looks like:

Do a System Restore.

If that doesn't work, do a virus scan.

Interesting thing when trying the walkthrough to edit it in the registry, when I get to the uninstall folder...there are no applications listed in the folder so I can't change the values.

Also interesting (and worrysome), I've been trying to run a virus scan, and it keeps freezing (which has never happened before).

You know, Java just updated recently I wonder if it didnt install right. I'm going to try and reinstall it today after reading that last article.
