Then open winapp.ini and add another line to it so that it will remove the logs on your system. Or create the entry in winapp2.ini. Example (FileKey4 is from what you listed in your post): [SpyBot Search and Destroy] LangSecRef=3024 Detect=HKCU\Software\PepiMK Software\SpybotSnD Default=True FileKey1=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs|*.* FileKey2=%ProgramFiles%\Spybot - Search & Destroy|advdebug.txt FileKey3=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy|Statistics.ini FileKey4=C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Anwendungsdaten\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs|*.* If create your own entry for winapp2.ini you'll have to rename "SpyBot Search and Destroy" to something like Spybot S&D, since I don't think CCleaner would clean Spybot S&D with two entries containing the same exact name.

The safest approach to dealing with that folder isn't to remove the files. Instead right click the folder and compress it's contents.

In order to keep up with modern games on-screen action you'll need a pretty good LCD monitor.

When I buy the final release of Vista one thing I'll be doing is getting rid of my 128 MB ATI Radeon and switch to a different display card manufacturer altogether.

F-Secure supposedly has BackWeb or BackWeb Lite bundled with it, probably as an update component. Running Spybot SD can deal with some (not very much actually) of BackWeb's stuff in the registry however the only way I could get rid of most of it after installing Kodak digital camera software was to first run Spybot SD, and then use RegSeeker. Using RegSeeker's 'Find in registry...' tool. I searched the registry, and then the hard disk for BackWeb and bwpfile to get rid of it. You'll have to look in the Windows directory and sub-folders to find even more of it and manually delete it. Some places to look in the registry for manually removing BackWeb are: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BackWeb HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\bwpfile HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BackWeb

CCleaner already does, it's in winapp.ini. Make sure you have Spybot Search & Destroy selected in the Cleaner settings.

@ Vanguard382 The Memtest86 website has a downloadable .ISO package that will allow you to create a bootable CD-R or CD-RW. Just load the .ISO with your CD recording software and burn a disc as usual to create the bootable CD. Then place the disc into your CD drive that boots first and restart Windows. Edit: Forgot to mention: Use the Windows boot menu to start from the bootable CD.

If you're using Microsoft RegClean v4.1a on Windows XP it won't work, as it isn't compatible and although it looks as if it removes entries it actually can't. If the file won't delete download Unlocker and then right click delete the file it and use Unlocker to delete it, or download HijackThis and delete it via the HijackThis Misc Tools section.

Although it's a false positive and ignoring it will allow you to install CCleaner, the only way to get it removed from being falsely detected is to contact your antivirus vendor, hence if nobody contacts them they won't know about it. They'll either want the actual setup file, or a link so that they can download it.

There's already various antivirus vendors that are adding routines into their definitions to deal with its variants that are now malware.

RedBook standards don't include any form of data on audio CDs let alone f'n rootkits, that's why music CDs - I won't call them audio CDs hence they aren't don't have the CD Digital Audio logo on them. Looks like recording companies are trying to rewrite RedBook standards all on their own, which isn't a first with recording companies since they release discs without any gaps between tracks and since the introduction of using 80 MIN CDs for some releases when the RedBook standards only allows for 74 MIN CDs.

Well previous versions had a carbon copy of Winamp's ID3 tagger, and various other things. I'll leave it at that. Amen brother, amen!

It's good. I'm linking to it in my signature.

CCleaner will detect junk files located in your user profile 'Local Settings\Temp' folder. You'll need to run CCleaner during a session in each user account in order for it to delete the junk in those folders for each and ever user. About the files disappearing or becoming unselected, are you sure you didn't click the big 'Run Cleaner' button beforehand. Edit: Sorry to add any confusion! Maybe CCleaner won't detect those files in that folder. I forgot I've had it set since the beginning of my CCleaner usage on my system in 'Options->Custom' to delete that folders contents.

The thread topic bothers me "Better than winamp?" because from what I've seen in the past allot of things in QA seem to be copied from Winamp.

Blah (if only there was a hurl emoticon). I've used Quintessential Player before on many occasions only to find the volume control broken, and various other annoying factors that always sent me flying back to Winamp. I honesty don't think anything will ever replace Winamp for me as long as I use MS Windows.

I also don't think you need it especially since you have 1 GB of RAM. Some caution needs to be used with the RAM refresh/defrag programs as I remember a few years ago when some of them were messing up systems when users were trying to free too much RAM. Edit: For some reason I've noticed over the past few years that running Ad-Aware's smart scan seems to refresh the memory.

I actually think the online virus scanner is pretty good, albeit it gave me one false positive. I don't know what the virus scanning technology is based upon, however Microsoft did acquire RAV Antivirus one or two years ago. The online virus scanner is one of the few that can actually scan inside of RAR archives. It's also a fast virus scanner which reminds me of eTrust EZ Antivirus. Forget about the cleanup tool it has, it doesn't find anything that CCleaner doesn't already find. --- Hopefully this is just the beginning of something really useful from Microsoft. I'd love to see Microsoft release a downloadable program that will combine virus scanning, and antispyware all in one application, and of course be free of charge.

Trend Micro CWShredder 2.19 released Download the standalone .exe (520 kb) from FileHippo.com, MajorGeeks.com or TrendMicro.com, or use the integrated update manager built into CWShredder to download the zip package (242 kb) from Trend Micro. None of the downloads included any documentation! Strangely enough this new version is the same size as the old one byte for byte. Edit: Added an additional download site.

Perhaps an issue: The startup scan for Windows doesn't automatically exit the application after the scanning is done. Is that intended to be that way or not, since I noticed the startup parameter is using the /s switch which I assume is meant to represent silent. Definite issues: * Deep Scan finishes just as quickly as the Smart Scan on my system; WinXP Pro SP2. * Some (not all) HOSTS file blocked sites that are in the proper format (I double checked): 127.0.0.1 ? ? ? localhost are seen as a hijacked HOSTS file. Please note: 127.0.0.1 localhost listed in the code above is just what I used as an example.

MrG the CCleaner developer has already eluded to the inclusion of secure file deletion in this post. Just give it some time before CCleaner will securely delete files in a future version.

Save this into winapp2.ini. If you don't have a winapp2.ini file create it. winapp2.ini is in the same folder as ccleaner.exe: [Opera 8 (Single User)]LangSecRef=3027Detect=HKCU\Software\Opera SoftwareDefault=TrueFileKey1=%ProgramFiles%\Opera\profile|COOKIES4.DATFileKey2=%ProgramFiles%\Opera\profile|cookies4.dat.sbsd.bakFileKey3=%ProgramFiles%\Opera\profile|GLOBAL.DATFileKey4=%ProgramFiles%\Opera\profile|OPERA6.ADR.SBSD.BAKFileKey5=%ProgramFiles%\Opera\profile\CACHE4|*.*FileKey6=%ProgramFiles%\Opera\profile\cacheOp|*.* Edit: Also get into the habit of installing programs into their default directory that their setup program suggests, since that's where CCleaner will look to clean their litter.
