    Ran S&D came up with,

    I personally did no registry changes my self. Is there other ways that the reg could be changed? and should I "Fix" this or uncheck it? I don't know much about the registry but I do know you can do a number on the pc if you fix something that doesn't need "Fixing" when it comes to registry.

    From looking at the screen shot, it appears that the reg change was initiated by Internet Explorer as a Windows security setting. It is probably OK to allow the change. If you're worried about possible negative results, you can always make a backup of the reg key before it's modified (use regedit > export and save it to a safe place), and/or create a system restore point. However, I'm no expert when it comes to Spybot S&D, so you might check out the SbotS&D forums at this link and see if there's some help there. Good luck!

    Quite possibly something changed by a recent Windows Update patch - but, could you please maximise S&D and fully extend the column so we can see exactly what the changed reg key is please?

    I hope this works. I've already unchecked and closed S&D but have the pic. I've blown it up some. If need be I can run it again I'm sure it will pop back up. the pc's slow because of this and that on it and I want to make sure when I take my pic's off they are clean. Plus I'm doing a regular clean as well.

    Thanks but like I said I'll have to run it again that is just a prnt scrn pic.I'll run it tonight and post it tomorrow in the am as it won't finish the scan before I'm asleep. Yes it takes that long. This is part of the clean up process I've dared to attempt (Finally!)on my desk top since I got a laptop:-orolleyes. Way too many pic's and unused programs that haven't been touched in months, some a year I'm ashamed to say.
