Add or Remove Programs is not giving me the correct "Last Used On" date.
They are all "rarely used", even the programs used daily! What's up with
that? I'd like to clean up unused items, but can't tell what's useful or not
with this incorrect information. I went to Kellys-korner-xp to see if I
could find help, but was boggled by too many entries. Thanks in advance.

Do you deem a program to be 'not useful' merely because you have not
used it that often? I can't remember that last time I used MS Photo
Story but I certainly wouldn't want to part with it.
