MSI Uninstall

Is there a way to remove "Uninstall" from the shell options for a specific MSI package.
When an MSI package resides on clients machine - it is possible to right-click and select "uninstall". This is a shell option - standatd for the Msi.Package class.
As a security measure, is there a way to remove this only for one specific MSI, like VirusScan.
Without modifying the entire Msi.Package class.

You can prevent it being removed by setting a LaunchCondition that would refuse to work if REMOVE=ALL, but you would probably upset some people that way

Have in mind that this could prevent the application from ever being uninstalled.
