A question & progs on my iPaq 1955

I just installed the newest version of eReader (3.0.3) and I have a big gripe. They've taken all icons off the bottom menu bar. All that remains is "Quit", the keyboard icon and "Menu". The old version included icons for "Find", "Find Next" and "Page Goto" that I used a lot. This new change is unacceptable to me, so I uninstalled the program and reinstalled 2.6.5 by running the CAB file on the iPaq. It worked but the darn menu bar is still that of the new version. I uninstalled again, deleted everything I could find using File Explorer with eReader or Peanut labels and reinstalled. Still the same problem. Does anyone know what I can do to restore the old menu bar? Thanks in advance.

Now... on to installed software. In the approximate order of usage:
eReader
TCPMP (magnificent movie player)
Lexipedia (a wikipedia compaction)
XnView (image viewer, slideshow, screen capture)
MS Pocket Streets (with maps for most major U. S. cities kept on my PC and transferred when needed)
Calc98 (calculator and units converter)
Pocket Stars (an astronomy & celestial navigation program)

Rarely (or never) used:
Frequency Tuner (for guitar tuning)
Ghronos (a stopwatch)
Life
PHM PPC Power Toys
uBook
Adobe Reader (for pdfs)
Pocket Artist
3ShoeBoxes

Games (in the approximate order of usage, but I very rarely play any of them):
Leo's Flight Simulator
Mini-Dogfight 1.4
Dots (GameBag One - Ilium)
FreeCell (nandhp)
Hang Him v 2.1 (hangman)
Mastermind v 1.0 (by P. V. Santen)
Tetris (Handmark)
Scrabble (Handmark)
Mines (Binary Fish)
Bubble Breaker (oopdreams)
Pocket Bricks v 1.2 (Tetris clone)

More games that I may never have played:
Backgammon (Handmark)
Checkers (Handmark)
Chess (Valentin Iliescu)
Colors (Handmark)
Pocket Chess (Handmark)
PPcCheckers v 1.0 (Ask4Soft)
Solitaire (basic Klondike by ?)
SuperSolitaire (Handmark)
Terni Lapilli 5.0 (like Pente)

Also on my 4gb SD card are many ebooks including fiction novels, dictionaries, medical dictionaries, medical references, drug handbook, an encyclopedia that I compiled some time back from the Microsoft Bookshelf abbreviated version of Encarta 2000, maps including the U. S. and countries of the world, star charts & constellation maps, a copy of the CIA World Fact Book, English grammar references, an encyclopedia of the occult, collections of quotations, riddles, tongue twisters, a word list for use with Scrabble, the Skeptic's Dictionary, two thesauruses (thesauri?), top 10 lists, trivia lists, the U. S. Constitution and Declaration of Independence, and timelines of U. S. history, world history, hominid evolution, and of life on earth.

And PPC related programs on my WinXP PC include:
DropBook
DocReader
eReader for Windows
iSilo
