[QUOTE="kiric96, post: 258590, member: 24853"] Correct me if i am wrong but you are suggesting that we may erase ALL "false" arguments in the registry, some programs use to leave a false argument to any entry and doesnt mean it was made by a malicious program. I know what a vbs file is... and as you said the vbs is executed or hosted by a "container" called wscript.exe...so to terminate execution you must finish that process, wscript.vbs is not always the malicious process... it is just like svchost.exe... many process run inside this (..) and some times this can be used to "hide" the malware, but doesnt mean that is necessarily malicious. Actually my last infection was caused by a vbs malware... called avast.vbs by that time it was not detected by most of the AV vendors.... My point was this: IF YOU CHECK ANY TUTORIAL (even microsoft) they put a disregard telling you that is not a good idea to tweak the registry specially for users that doesnt know about pcs so... what i tried to mean is: if the users make another change in this (...) was him/her fault not yours, cuz this "special area of windows is sensible to any changes". THAT WHAT "DISREGARD" means. you can not send a 5 yo child to drive a car... even with instruccions and "how to" it may be a bad idea.... And well i just tried to give my point of view... however i see that you were kind of offended and i ask pardon for that it was no my intention to do so... [/QUOTE]
