Autoruns query "Bill P" <BillP[ at ]nospam.invalid> 12/6/2008 3:21:22 PM Hi I have seen Autoruns recommended in this ng a few times. I downloaded and ran it and I have a number of queries. Under the Boot Execute tab there is only one item /lsdelete/. I was expecting a lot more. I believe it has to do with Adaware. I assume it is OK to uncheck this ? Under the Explorer tab there are four WinZip entries all with the same image path. Are they all required or can three be deleted ? And finally there are a number of entries where the Image Path says /File not found/. I assume these items can be unchecked. Regards Bill

Re: Autoruns query "JS" <[ at ]> 12/6/2008 4:48:35 PM Don't 'Delete', just uncheck each of the items, if something breaks you can always 'Check' the item again. Test each of your issues separately, don't uncheck Isdelete, the Zip entries, etc all at one time. Isdelete is AdAware's boot cleaner. Don't 'Delete', just uncheck the entry. There also may be an option in AdAware to disable boot scanning, in which case this would be the preferred way to handle this entry in Autoruns. I also have four Winzip entries, they each have their own registry class id. Example: HKCR\CLSID\{E0D79305-84BE-11CE-9641-444553540000} Was aware of these entries but never tried to experiment since I installed only one version of WinZip. File not found example: File not found: D:\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader\AdobeUpdateManager.exe AcRdB7_0_9 Belongs to an old version of Adobe's Acrobat Reader which is no longer on my PC. Suggest you uncheck it, reboot and test Acrobat Reader (that is, if you have a newer version installed), if the newer version works OK, then you can delete it. Finally, create a 'System Restore Point' before you do anything!!! JS http://www.pagestart.com "Bill P" <BillP[ at ]nospam.invalid> wrote in message news:uXE$PZ7VJHA.4148[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl...

Re: Autoruns query "Bill P" <BillP[ at ]nospam.invalid> 12/6/2008 5:30:41 PM Thanks JS I have unchecked rather than deleted and things seem to be working OK. Most of the /File not found / entries are under the Drivers tab. "JS" <[ at ]> wrote in message news:O7o8%23J8VJHA.200[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl...

Re: Autoruns query "Frank" <vze32975[ at ]verizon.net> 12/6/2008 7:06:09 PM Double-Click on any of the "not found" and it puts you in Regedit at that missing statement. For example, I have 5 with the first letter P, and all appear to be part of Autoruns. Probably something left over from the previous version. If you haven't used Regedit it would be safer if you don't try this. Frank "Bill P" <BillP[ at ]nospam.invalid> wrote in message news:u2c9gh8VJHA.4928[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl...

Re: Autoruns query "Bill P" <BillP[ at ]nospam.invalid> 12/6/2008 7:21:22 PM Hi Frank It says /File not found/ it doesn't say Registry entry not found. I also have 5 with the first letter P and they are all to do with System32\drivers.Possibly left over from updating drivers.
