Archived from groups: alt>comp>anti-virus (more info?)

I'm running Windows XP with a hard wire Linksys firewall, Spybot , AdAware
and, unfortunatly for now, Norton came installed (I'll keep it for 3 months,
free,
try to do a Complete uninstall, then switch to NOD 32).
They are all on a 2 week-old PC
AdAware found :

obj[0]=Regkey : clsid\{49232000-16e4-426c-a231-62846947304b}
obj[1]=Regkey : interface\{8da729b1-b0fc-4fab-9d33-0b004e0f0592}
obj[2]=Regkey : sysinfo.sysdata
obj[3]=Regkey : sysinfo.sysdata.1
obj[4]=Regkey : typelib\{980bcd41-0313-4693-88be-d036753fa898}

I don't usually like to mess with removing any Regkey.
Would you advise me to take it out of quarantine, or have AdAware delete it?

TIA

Sylvia,
What did you do in the end as I notice your post is 2 months old?

2 keys are system keys so restore the sysdata keys ... in fact I would restore all, reset Ad-Aware so that it doesn't scan the registry and then find RegClean it's free ... CNet Downloads have it if I remember correctly ... and run that to clean your registry out.

Hope this helps you, if a bit late, I've only just started getting the newletter about this forum.
