Don't only rely on add/remove pgms to determine installed software

As an example, you have a report for Windows Internet Explorer 8. When I look at it, I see 91 systems (all my XP pcs and some servers (I suspect 2003)). You omit IE 8 that is part of Vista and Windows 7 and Server 2008. So the count is NOT accurate...
