The ActiveX\com section of your Registry refers to one or more invalid files...
The following file was not found on your hard drive during the scan
C:\windows
system\disktool.dll
Is it safe to remove these references from registry? Or should I locate and use disktool.dll

'you wonder, why after right-clicking on any drive, the response takes more time than right-clicking on a file? once more our friend billy has done a bad job. start regedit and search for disktool.dll. you will find the reference to it under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D3B1DE00-6B94-1069-8754-08002B2BD64F}, it is supposed to be in c:\windows\system. you will find it neither there nor elsewhere, not even on the ms-servers! probably the functions fulfilled by disktool.dll, which, in the meantime was removed, were shifted directly into the system and most likely someone simply forgot to remove the relevant entries from the installation routines according to all versions of win. therefore we all have yet another slowing down entry in our registry. it can be deleted safely!'

HTH PC
