remove them using the control panel, then add / delete programs and pick the program you want to uninstall.

.
If you want to uninstall them then go to control panel & click on add or remove programs.Select the programs from the list and remove them.
Hit the start button. Go to Control Panel. Then go to Add and Remove Programs. Then select the programs you want to delete and hit remove. Sometimes the folder is still left or an icon in the Start Menu but after it is deleted in the Add/Remove Programs menu you can right click on it and delete it. Please make sure you delete it first in the Add/Remove menu first before deleting any folders.
go to the control panel, and then add or remove programs.. delete the programs ie software you don’t want

start, control panel, add-remove programs, then select the programs and click uninstall
If they came with your computer but were not factory installed/activated, you need to install them and/or activate them yourself and then go to add/remove programs and remove them.
For Windows XP
Go into your Control Panel by first clicking on the Start Button.
Then click on the Control Panel icon located in the right column of the Start Menu.
If your Start Menu is set to the Classic View, then begin by clicking on the Start Button.
Then click on Settings, then click on the Control Panel icon to open up the Control Panel.
Now double click on the Add Remove Programs icon to display the list of all your installed programs.
Then use your mouse to scroll down this list until you see the program you want to remove.
Now highlight that program with your mouse and click on the Remove button just to the right.
Windows will then remove that program from your computer including all system files relating to it.
More often than not Windows will ask you to reboot your system after a program is un-installed.
Whether you are asked to do so or not, you should exit the application and reboot your system.
