O.P. RE: Messenger + Registery Problem
Hello Patchou,
I agree that adding this entry into the Run Key of windows is quite harmless.
Why does MSN messenger with Messenger Plus! installed have to (re)do this EVERY TIME the computer is started though?
Some parts of Lavasofts Ad-Aware software are indeed more for "peace of mind". On a whole though I have found the software quite good at reducing infestations on my computer. The notifications from Ad-Watch have often alerted me to something suspect.
After being burnt a few time with very destructive malware I have been become much more cautious and have more "protective" software running. I think an increasing amount of people are becoming aware and doing the same.
I checked the settings of Ad-watch and it is not possible to exempt this particular Run Key from being monitored.
I realise this problem is more of an annoyance than anything else. I suspect that it is not one that is not easily "fixed" though....?!
