Do you need to enable Advanced mode, to see the those options?

Thought that might be the case. Have never used anything but, but couldn't be bothered booting out of Linux to look.

323078 2005-02-10 23:23:00 Foxy, many thanks . . . . you nailed it .

John Boy, I'm still concerned about all the freaky things your info programme showed up . Can I safely delete the ones makes "X"?

It might pay to trot along to the forum's Spyware FAQ ( . pcworld . co . nz/faq . php?faq=pressf1_faqs_security#faq_pressf1_faq_" target="_blank">pressf1 . pcworld . co . nz 16) and follow the instructions listed there first . Even though you have already been using a few of the tools it sounds like the nasties have somehow sneaked on behind your back . You might in particular want to do a scan with the online anti-virus and trojan services as well as Stinger as they often detect things that others have missed .

Let us know how you get on . :)

323081 2005-02-11 07:56:00 you can also click Start -> Run, and type REGEDIT,
browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURR ENTVERSION\RUN
under CURRENTVERSION also check through all the other that start with RUN. Check under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRE NTVERSION\RUN and look through the ones that begin with RUN.

EDIT a your own risk!
