Greetings.
WinXP Pro on HP Pavilion ~800Mhz 256MB Ram
I have been pretty good at maintaining virus and adware scans for years,
setting processes to minimal, defrag etc. I ran RegCleaner from Jouni
Vuorio, which I've used on my ME which seems to work on XP as well, and it
shows in the program listing something I'm not used to seeing and cannot
find references to. They are:
RegCleaner 4.3 by Jouni Vuorio

Author : C07ft5Y
Software : WinXP
Age : Old

If you choose to remove this item this key would be removed
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\C07ft5Y\WinXP

The 2nd one is:
RegCleaner 4.3 by Jouni Vuorio

Author : S3r521
Software : It6ns23t3b4pbeda2684
Age : Old

If you choose to remove this item this key would be removed
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\S3r521\It6ns23t3b4pbed a2684

I do not see any processes that are running that are unusual, that I know
of. Is there someone that can tell me what these listings are and if they
should be removed and how? Thank you very much.

B.rgds,
Kevin

If you don't understand them leave them alone !

This is why one should NOT use such Registry tools. This is what is called
micro-management.

Precisely why I'm asking, David. It is to learn about it to understand it.
If everyone just left things alone, they start out with 45 processes running
from a fresh install and then add more. I can understand that you may be
fustrated with answering questions to those that caused their own problems,
but I am asking before possibly making a change. We learn from each other,
don't we?
Thanks for the reply.
B.rgds,
Kevin

Did you do a google search for the key, putting quotes around it so google
looks for the precise phrase?

Thank you, Doug.
I used MSN search and didn't find anything. I did the quote mark thing in
Google and came up with quite a lot. I didn't know about putting keywords
in quotes before.
One had to do with CD disk protection scheme and the other about DivX
player. So I won't be deleting either one. Thanks for the help!
B.rgds,
Kevin
