It's located in the XP registry at HKCU > Software > Microsoft > Windows > ShellNoRoam > MUICache
After some searching, I haven't been able to find a definitive answer for what this key is used for and how significant it is.
The reason I want to know is that the installer of a new program I just tried (PTLens) deleted almost the entire MUICache during the install. Most of the entries it deleted reference other programs or Windows components. This seems very suspicious. Those entries have nothing to with the new program.
Here's a list from Total Uninstall of the things it deleted.
