ok ian....... we've already established that i have no idea what i'm doing as far as the registry is concerned (and i HATE having to repeat it lol) so won't be allowing Systemworks to fix anything that doesn't involve removing shortcuts
But.......in that case..... is a regular regmechanic safer to use for a pleb like me?

We have Sophos running on the networked PCs and i'm sure that the NHS won't let the licence expire without renewing it but we have a stand alone pc that i'd dl the AVG Free Edition on to until...... one of our I.T bods saw it..... once he'd stopped laughing, he asked WHY????
So i swapped it for AntiVir
