have you recently removed your SD card?
if so try to pop it back in and restart the Q..sometimes when you remove the card or it pops out and you have running programs on there you need to restart to get it to recognize the card again

they are still in the remove programs list but i dont see them in the 'storage' file. i went through all the other folders in case they might have moved to somewhere more remote (program files, windows, my dox). all that is left in the storage is a windows folder and link for doom that is labeled "program files" which is really odd. in the windows folder again, is just a link for doom...which i didnt put there either.

so no idea why they would just up and leave like that?

May not be the problem, but I've had a similar experience: I set my e-mail to the storage card, and then booted the Q without the storage card inserted. WM5 dutifully created "\Storage Card" for me with my e-mail folder underneath it.

When I reinserted the storage card, since "\Storage Card" already existed it loaded as "\Storage Card2", which of course destroyed all my links.

I haven't fixed it yet; eventually I'll stop everything, disconnect from the network, and then remove the card and directory, then reinsert card. Hopefully all will return to its proper place.
