wine users - Jun 2010 - How does one edit the 'Programs' folder in WINE?

Greetz guys,

After playing around with some games and software, i've uninstalled a whole
load of them....but their entries are still placed when you click on
Applications -> Wine -> Programs. How do I manually remove any entries in
this folder?

All the help appreciated. :)
