Under my "Remove Programs" list, there are 3 Microsoft programs that I don't know what they do or why they are there. Can someone explain them to me?

They are:

Microsoft Activation
Microsoft .NET Compact Framework
Microsoft SQLCE 2.0

I would appreciate someone enlightening me. Thanks.

Those components were installed, probably, as a result of some applications you installed on your machine. Activation is probably associated with MSReader, .Net and SQLCE are system and database components respectively. Don't remove these items - the applications that installed them will most likely cease to function without 'em.
