If the scan comes up with unknown ones and you dont know what they are/do (do some research, google) leave em...for the rest, well it says "safe"and "not fully safe", i always let it clean out those 2 sorts and never experienced any problems.

If you still doubt, make a restore point before doing anything (regcleaner creates backups too tho...but you know better safe than sorry).

The one you mentioned in your first post was still there too, right mwe99?

Edit: yw

Yeah i just clicked "delete safe ones" when i reboot i'll see if things improve Thanks for the info though !

Yeah but i didn't see the one that appeared when i start up.. it was odd cos i did check for it

No...

Msconfig moves the registry value out of HKLM or HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Run so it doesn't autostart anymore, but keeps the item in the list so you can easily restore it if you want. There's no problem if you leave it there, so RegCleaner isn't needed at all.

A really good program to clean the autorun list is Sysinternal's Autoruns which shows much more startup paths than msconfig, and let's you disable and remove entries completely.

You can also use spybot search and destroyer to edit autorun.
Open Spybot, click on tools on the left of the window and click sytem startup. You can also disable and remove entries.

Yes, but it isn't as comprehensive as Autoruns.

You used those quotes right, I'm pretty sure those aren't problems at all...

I use Registry Machanic.
I search all the time and I get so many problems. They just won't go away. Every time I search theres like 50.
