Add Remove Programs weird symbol???

by daniel - 10/2/05 8:12 AM

(XP Home SP2) the first entry in Control Panel/Add Remove Programs....there are no keyboard symbols for some of this so I'll try to describe......starts with
2 arrows pointed to the right (kind of like >>, except with a shaft to create an arrow look) THEN a registered trademark, you know, a capital R with a circle around it, THEN the letters EENE and THEN a division symbol. I hope you can get a picture from that description. I've Googled EENE and got nothing. When I try to remove it a box with many ????? comes up and a blue number like 87400 (the number changes on different attempts to remove).
Has anyone experienced this or have any ideas. I run Adaware, Spy Subtract (Trend Micro) and SpyBot.
Thanks for any insight into this strange thing.

My computer\C:\program files, if it is showing there, you have a better chance to ID it.
