Software Lists

Try Belarc Advisor at http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

It works on all Windows OS's and gives you an audit of hardware and software, (with licenses), installed on your system.

Mark

A search for *.exe and *.com gives all programs. The command in a XP commands window for that is
dir *.exe /s /b > listexe.txt
dir *.com /s /b > listcom.txt
Then open those textfiles in Notepad or Excel and do with them what you like.

This is the start of my listexe.txt:
C:\Bdienst\2004\IB2004u.exe
C:\Bdienst\2005\IB2005.exe
C:\Bdienst\2005\ib2005d.exe
C:\Bdienst\2005\IB2005u.exe
C:\Bdienst\2006\ib2006.exe
C:\Bdienst\2006\ib2006d.exe
C:\Bdienst\2006\ib2006u.exe
C:\BJPrinter\CNMWINDOWS\Canon S800 Installer\Driver\CNMSMSD.EXE
C:\BJPrinter\CNMWINDOWS\Canon S800 Installer\Driver\CNMSTMN.EXE
C:\BJPrinter\CNMWINDOWS\Canon S800 Installer\Inst\helpkicker.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\Eigenaar\Application Data\Microsoft\Installer\{45EA11B5-874D-480E-89B9-2545505BBE3E}\ARPPRODUCTICON.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\Eigenaar\Application Data\Microsoft\Installer\{9F185C48-595B-401A-A1D6-AAB324890DC4}\IconCBE855212.exe

But somehow I don't think you're interested in this, although it certainly is what you require: "the list of all software programs that are on your system.". But it might be a good basis to make what you want.
