    Used RegScrubXP on my wife's comp to do some cleaning (1st time for this prog - have used CCleaner before) and ran across a problem that freezes the program when trying to fix. CPU goes to 100% and have to use Task Manager to quit program.
    Section - AppID
    Main Key - NSMdt.EXE
    Value Name - AppID
    Value Data - null
    Did some googling and some references were made to NIS 2006 but no resolution was found.
    NIS 2006 is used as the main AV on this comp. (I know - resource hog but that's her choice.)
    Have put this in the exclusion list for RegScrub but wanted to find out if anyone had run across this problem?
    System - Dell Dimension 8400, P4 3.60 Ghz, 2 GB RAM, XPPro SP2 Fully updated

    LBMEST,
    Put RegScrub into the search this forum (for software). I already read a thread today with RegScrub problems. Was surprised to see it so soon again. There are a lot of threads about it.

    Thanks for the replies everyone,
    Knew there had been some other threads on it recently but I searched on the specific key. I've been using the program on my computer with no problems for about 6 months. Wife's comp is more of a production machine since she works from home 4 days a week so I'll stick with CCleaner on her's.
    Thanks again.

    Has anyone had problems after running one of these programs?

    I'm getting an error on xfire that won't let me open it up now and the '

    only thing I did was run this program. I wondered if it cleaned house

    a little too well?

    Just a thought.

    Welcome to MG, but you are better off starting a new thread as you are tacking onto a thread that is 8-9 months old. Bazza
