I have a question Grandpaw. Did this notice happen right after you put a checkmark in the box on "Misc. IE settings" on SpywareBlaster to lock in your home page? That is fine BUT it adds a registry value that Spybot might have picked up. IF that is the case, just put it into ignore. I had that same thing happen with Ad-Aware, the next time that I scanned after checkmarking that box.
I get these popups which I don't know how to handle. Just now, "Search and Destroy has detected an important registry entry that has been changed".
Catagory: User-specic browser toolbar
Change: Value added
Entry: a string of numbers and letters.
I click the ? for more info. There, it has a standard question: "Did you just try to install some Internet Explorer plugin? If it's not shown as a bad one, you should proceed. If this happens out of the blue sky while surfing the web, you should get cautious".
When it popped up, I had a CNET page on my monitor, one thanking me for a post I had just made.
I have no idea how to deal with this, and this kind of thing happens quite regularly, though not frequently.
I'm not so much interested in how to deal with particular problem as I am trying to decide what, if any, use I should try to make of Search & Destroy Resident. I have the notion that I may cause more problems by using it than by getting rid of it, by denying changes I should allow, or allowing changes I should deny. Does anyone have any suggestions or guidelines?
