I've been going through everything looking for spyware and adware. When I was in regedit, there was something call mitermaker under the SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run. When I clicked on it, instead of a numerical value, I got what looked like gobledeegook (new just invented word almost). It is a bunch of symbols and looks like something a programer would use. Does anyone know what this is?

Why not just use Spybot S&D or Adaware to search for spyware automatically? FYI, I prefer Spybot.

I did use the Adware, maybe I'm not using it properly. I've run it twice and it gives me a screen with things it recognises. But I don't see this on there. I was going through a list from Tweak 3D, and in the process found this spot in the regedit. But I don't want to just delete it without knowing what I'm deleting. Y ou say you like Spy Bot better?
