Delete These?

    With TimW's help, I have recently gone through the big 'cleanup' thing to get rid of some junk (although malware is not suspected at this time). Have been having Windows Explorer hangs big time.

    On re-running RogueKiller, it has come up with six PUPs and I suppose I'd like to delete them, yet I don't know how to tell what they are related to. I think these are in the Windows Explorer area of the registry, but I am not sure.

    Guidance? Answers?

    Thanks in advance.

    Also, is this "ZeroAccess" a false positive because I accidentally had SuperAntiSpyware (free version, not scanning) active down in the taskbar? And what is this WindowsPreferences thing? I deleted it. Hope that's OK

    None of these are problems. Please do not post image snapshots! Please attach text log files in the future as you did in your other thread.
