Is there any way in Vista to look up in Vista your install history? I
went to a tech support site the other day that actually had me install a
program so they could take control of my computer and fix my issue. They
did a great job and it worked. Well, after that, we finiished, and I was
just thinking about that program he had me install and if anybody could
just use it in the future to probe around my computer and such.
I was just wondering if I could figure out what that program was, and
uninstall it so I don't have to worry about it in the future.

Why not just look in Control Panel>Programs & Features? It should be listed.
