Get Eusing Free Registry Cleaner. Nearly all of them offer a free scan that
comes up with 8,649,345 problems, or something of the sort, but will only
fix 25 for free. Then they hit you for your credit card number. Download
Eusing, and you can send them some cash if you want. Otherwise, it's free,
and it's as good as what you'd buy.

Yer welcome.

Steve - next question.

When I do a ctrl-alt-delete and look at the 'Processes' list, I see
about 40 executables running. What is a good way to verify which
should or shouldn't be running?

Google the file name of all of them. It is cumbersome but it will give
you an idea of what it is.

I was hoping for something a little more automated. But, if that's the
only way, then that's what I'll do.

About the virus thing. I hadn't had anything for years and I ran my
W/98 machine "bareback" for most of that time. I just got on XP last
spring. I wonder if this last thing would have even "stuck" on W/98.
If I could find the web site again I might load up a sacrificial
machine and go look. I have a bunch of old machines around here.
