Lavasoft Ad-aware SE detects adware/spyware in registry
I have used Lavasoft Ad-aware SE personal (version 1.05) in the past and on
many occasions the software has detected adware/spyware in my registry. From what i know it is not the best thing to tamper with the registry so was wondering if infact by removing these spyware/adware it will damage my system.

Let Ad-aware SE make those changes. Lavasoft did extensive research and knows what Registry entries should be removed. It is also hard coded into the software with an extremely small chance of a mistake being made. It is containdicated for the layman to make manual changes to the Registry without specific knowlege on the use of editing the Registry because a mistake can have negative side effects. BTW: Ad-Aware SE v1.06 has improved performance and fixed a few bugs. -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html http://www.ik-cs.com/got-a-virus.htm

| Go to any 3 porn sites. You will find more than you ever | wanted on your machine ;-) | Really ? I go to porn sites and haven't had an infection nor noted and attempt to install adware/spyware. Therefore I'd have to say that is too broad a generalization. -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html http://www.ik-cs.com/got-a-virus.htm
