Where does Internet Explorer store its' add-on

Question

I have checked all around the registry and I could not find any lists of all installed extensions.

At this point, any general location of IE extensions/add-ons would help.

Explorer Bars - Internet Explorer sidebars located adjacent to the browser pane. Entries can be found in the registry at:
