In the Add/Remove programs window, select 'Change/Remove' option of that particular software and see if windows gives u the option "Program is uninstalled, remove the entry from this list"

In the registry locate -
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall

There you get all the keys. Check the display name in each keys manually or export and search. Then delete the key which is annoying you.

it has a separate section for seeing programs listed in Add/Remove List and an option to remove it also..
