I've created a webpage with information on how to find and remove hidden COM 
ports (USB serial or legacy) on Windows XP computers.  These ports are not 
shown in the normal Device Manager window even when View > Show Hidden Devices 
is enabled.  With this procedure, you are able to view all hidden devices in 
Device Manager that normally would not show up.

Thanks to Rick, N6XI, for doing a lot of leg work on this along with others. 
 The link to this page is from the Lagniappe Page on rttycontesting.com.  Or 
viewed directly here:
