Don't the anti-spyware programs chech and amend the permissions on these keys?
Regards, Jason Tozer Database Analyst London Ext 1131 - 3SC.5 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Thane Sherrington (S) Sent: 21 October 2005 15:53 To: [email protected] Subject: [H] Fighting spyware I've noticed that a lot of spyware renders itself untouchable by anti-spyware software by using permissions to protect it's registry entries. I was thinking of running something like this: subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=everyone=f To allow easier removal. I know that MS recommends that "everyone" not be given full rights, but I can't really take the time to reset each locked key, so I figure this would be faster. What does the collective think? I also found a program called Danger Tools http://peter.verhas.com/progs/c/nt/pvt/ that allows me to run a command prompt with System priviledges. Would running the anti-spyware software from that prompt allow me to bypass the permissions in the registry?
