After MUCH stumbling around in windows, I was able to finally find out how to change the owner of the keys in question. Then I was able to delete them. Thank you for your help. Microsoft certainly doesn't make finding things easy.
After uninstalling software, there are keys in the "Security Center" of the registry...

I can not delete these keys. I can not change the permissions for these keys. Other keys I can delete. When I choose to uninstall software, I should be allowed to delete ALL keys if I choose. Does anyone know how to delete such keys? This is just another example of Microsoft's arrogance... they know what the world needs and they are going to give it to us whether we like it or not. You need to listen to your customers!
