Are you running IE7, or any 'internet security' access control, or
'malware'/intrusion detection  software ?

Subject: Regedit search question


I have read here on this list that one should NOT dabble in the registry,
but here is what I have. I own a Fugi digital camera, tried to upload
pictures to my P.C. and the software would not start. I uninstalled it and
before I reinstalled it (and I always do this when uninstalling and then
reinstalling software) ran a "regedit" scan for the term 'Fugi". To my utter
surprise I ran across '2' folders full of websites and from reading the
names quite a lot seem to be porn sites of various sorts, .com's, .net's,
.ru's, .org's and .uk's.. They don't appear to all be porn, there is
msn1.org & net, mortgage-debt.net, arizonaweb.org, etc. There are literally
hundreds and hundreds of these websites.I must say that I am clueless as to
where these came from. My question is can I delete the entire folders from
the regedit search or do I have to delete them individually or is this an
indicator that I need to debug and reformat. I am running XP Home/SP2 and my
antivirus/antispyware is Panda. The hour glass part of my curser
sporadically goes on and off like something is running in the background. I
have noticed that my system has been extremely slow lately and am wondering
if this may be why?  The folders seem to be identical and one is located in
each of the following respectively:

1) HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Microsoft>Windows>Current Version>Internet
Settings>Zone Map> Domains
2)HKEY_USERS>S-1-5-21-2885428501-3477723857-56604596-1005>Software>Microsoft
>Windows>Current Version>Internet Settings>Zone Map>Domains

Many thanks
