Subject: [PCSOFT] Registry change question


Spybot keeps flagging a registry change: Browser menu extension Value added 
Refresh picture with full quality.

Is the change necessary or harmless and should be allowed, or a problem and 
should be denied?

Thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob,

Don't know which version of Spybot SD you are using and I haven't personally 
run into the flag you report, but you might wish to visit Spybot's Online 
User's Forum. In my experience Spybot will rarely highlight an item [call it 
a false positive if you will] that my other four forensic 
anti-spyware/anti-malware apps let pass; if I'm unsure what it's all about, 
a quick visit to the Spybot's forums has always answered my questions. You 
can also google the word Spybot and the name it gives to the possible 
problem and you'll quickly discover that others have already been there, 
done that .. and have answers to your questions,

Here's the link to the English language forum: http://forums.spybot.info/.

In case you're wondering about the other four programs I use, they are:

1) eTrust PestPatrol Anti-Spyware
2) ewido anti-spyware 4.0 micro scanner
3) Lavasoft Ad-Aware SE Personal
4) TREND Micro's Housecall

also use these anti-rootkit tools:

1) AVG Anti-Rootkit Free
2) TREND Micro Rootkit Buster


HTH. Please let us know how you  make out.

Kind Regards,

                         .. jeff      `~ )
