    That's not enough information to go on and it does not sound like a rootkit. It is just a registry key. Give us the full log from Rootkit Revealer.

    Also are you having malware problems? If yes then you need to run all of the below

    There was nothing of significance in either log and I did not see anything reporting the HKU\2-1-5-18 registry entry either so I still do not know exactly what you were referring to.

    I don't know what you are referring too. All you did was post an image showing help information on using Rootkit Revealer. You still did not post a log that shows me anything being detected.
