  1. ?50.

     

    I don't know what that would be in U.S. money, however for around $100-$200 dollars here in the U.S.A. you can get a very decent pair of Altec Lansing surround speakers with a subwoofer. In that price range there's other name brands as well.

  2. I use AVG antivirus but only as an on  demand scan and as a startup boot scan.  Isn't that sufficient?

    You need real-time protection (resident shield) enabled to stop a virus before it infects your system and causes damage versus it infecting your system and later having to remove the virus and repair the damage. Since you don't have real-time protection running that's why it was suggested for you to get an antivirus scanner.

     

    You'd be better off with eTrust that rridgely recommended, and you can use it for free for one full year.

  3. Personally I use, like, and prefer Altec Lansing speakers w/Subwoofer on the PC because my first set was on my first system that came with them, they left a very good lasting impression; I really like how they are made/manufactured quality-wise when comparing them against rival products in the same price range, and I like the sound they produce again against rival products in the same price range - I'm however not sure how they would fair against Bose speakers though.

     

    Although I have desktop speakers they very rarely get used because most of the time I'm using headphones.

  4. Oh, that sounds really strange.

    Probably is!

    I remember using Norton Antivirus 2000 and it's email protection if I remember correctly added an entry in the HOSTS file as well.

  5. Although I don't backup what the Issues scanner detects as do many other long time CCleaner users if you're ever in doubt create the backup that CCleaner offers to make as it's the only way to determine and examine what exactly was removed without the lot of us guessing.

  6. I don't see anything wrong with the registry file itself that you posted.

     

    I do have a question and it is what registry cleaning program were you using that removed so many of from what I can determine valid references?

     

    Sure some of the listings with @="" point to nothing, however some of them shouldn't be removed. Whatever registry cleaner it was removed references to some security programs you have or used to have installed which are:

    * anti-virus = Norton

    * anti-trojan = Trojan Hunter

    * anti-spyware = PepiMK Software is for Spybot Search & Destroy

    * anti-spyware/anti-malware = SpywareBlaster

     

    Try this:

    1. Copy (don't move) that registry file to C:\ but don't put it in any folders, just put it into C:\

    2. Rename the registry file to a short name such as: restore.reg

    3. Open the Registry Editor: Start > Run > Type in: regedit

    4. With the Registry Editor open click: File > Import

    5. Browse to C:\restore.reg and click OK when it displays a confirmation window.

    6. Close the Registry Editor and restart Windows. When Windows starts up again see if any of the problems are fixed.

     

    Note: I still want to know what registry cleaning program you used!

  7. I think that it is a bad idea to have double entries. It can only resolve to one anyways.

    Whatever, these two entries are required for CookieCop to work without them it won't function properly:

    127.0.0.1 localhost

    0.0.0.0 localhost

     

    Edit: Forgot these:

    127.0.0.1 CookieCop

    0.0.0.0 CookieCop

  8. What defrag program are you using that would suggest such an absurd thing? We aren't in the day of Win9x anymore where you'd have to disable your antivirus scanner real-time protection in order for defrag to complete.
