:huh:Sorry guys, you're dealing with a PC illiterate. I read Bruce's link & it's "Greek to me", don't know what 'SD card' means for one thing. The only thing in Clint's reply that I understand is...

Yup, I'm still finding things via Events Viewer. :blush: Here's a few shots.

Sorry it took me sooo long to finally download Autoruns & post back. :( Got it done yesterday. Mine must be a newer version than you have because the 'Everything tab' was preselected (I guess) so I...

How sad? I've never made an 'online' purchase before but was going to buy the Deluxe version only to find that I have to create a PayPal account which would most likely never get used again.

By WS Lounge mail, you just mean that you direct any incoming email to a folder named WS Lounge, right?

Snap! I've been away from here too long & now with so many replies it's gonna take me forever to read & reply back.

There was something posted about SAS which reminded me that I did have it also...

Nothing in Device Mgr. & I've never done anything in Registry. It scares me. I'm not sure what more would make the screen shot distinctive so am gonna try to paste in the results of VEW. It contains...

oops, I don't remember what version it was, only that it was a 'trial version' & now that I've done so much deleting in trying to get rid if it, the only reference (other than the 3 empty folders in...

I'm not going to even try to do individual replies.

1. It wasn't a 'fly-by-night' program, it's part of SuperAntiSpyware which I see recommended a lot, I'm not a complete 'putz', only partial. I...

So the short answer is 'yes, it's safe to just delete those 3 folders'?

As I said in my reply to Ted, my friend 'did' the CCleaner Registry clean but the folders are still there. Is it because all that was deleted from both Prefetch & CC Reg. clean is still sitting in...

I won't touch anything 'Registry', I don't know enough about computers to be able to fix something that goes goofy.

However, friend of mine did delete the contents of Prefetch & he also did the...

I uninstalled a trial version of an adblocker a couple months ago but kept getting errors in Event Viewer referring to it so finally went on a hunt through my computer & found a couple folders in...

In the 'good ole days' of XP when Patch Tuesday rolled around I would pick out the 'criticals' to install first, usually 1 or 2 at a time, wait a day or so to make sure every thing was ok with PC,...

@kelliann and DaveShell,

Yes, especially now with SlartyBart's new tutorial which endeavor helped on, you can install WM on Windows 7 very easily!! And if you do have any problems just post there...

Thanks. I was more curious than concerned other than the doubleclick stuff, don't care for that.

Just curious as to why I end up with sooo many when I visit here? I was here just a bit ago, not logged in, just looking for approx. 15 mins., then checked TIF & found an additional 132 items added...

Clint, which entry or entries are you referring to as not benign? And which would you suggest as best for a nOOb, batch file as your post #5 or rebuild index as your post #8?

Thank you.

Thanks Tinto, I tried to get a 'scrolling' capture with FastStone but guess I've forgotten how, :o haven't used it since my old XP crashed in Feb. so here's a partial of the 1255...

How does someone with limited PC knowledge know how to set the settings when the wording might as well be in foreign language?

I think most of my machine is at 'Default' and wondering if that's...

I also found some in a post I was reading.

Adobe Flash Player and Java are both confusing to me. Are they necessary? I assume I have Flash because I've had a pop up this past week but was in the middle of something so just clicked on 'remind...

I thought I was being sooo smart & did the 'quicker' batch file as per EKMantis on page 112 but now find how dumb I really am :huh:! After I unzip, & open next folder, there's 6 files (?) but now I...

Thanks Clint, I was just about ready to go to 'updates' to do Silverlight, but might as well leave it hidden if I'm reading you right.

Thanks Ted, are there actually times when I'll need to...
