I have a c++ application. The app icon shows fine on the start menu, task bar etc., but not in Add / Remove Programs in the control panel. What do I need to do to fix this?

Control panel add/remove program reads all the programs list from registry.

For XP it's HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

you can take backup of your registry, and remove your program name from this registry.
