I previously tried 2 programs (TuneUp WinStyler and AVG7 virus checking programs. They were uninstalled. Now "Wizard" tries to help me everytime I open! Help!! I tried Search and deleting all I could + Add & Remove to uninstall.. Nothing helps; I even tried deleting them in the Safe Mode. Any advice?

Thanx for all the help I got from dccarnes.. this am I found the 2 culprits that hung around even though I thought they had been uninstalled (I used the Add/Remove XP, then Search then right click delete on them), but they were like imbedded fleas. Any rate, dcc mentioned someone he contacted said try Device Manager..(in yellow) and Shazam!! there those 2 were until I removed them..No more unwanted Hardware Wizard screens since. Thanx again.
