I use a package supplied by my ISP that includes Anti Spyware/ Anti Virus/ Firewall/ Pop up Blocker etc so I would expect it to work well.

As I say it does report those as Spyware and that they were found in the registry, so can you tell me why they would be in the registry each time if they are not Spyware, and why would they be called Kazaa and Grokster when I don't use those p2p's?

I also update my spyware software every day.

Any ideas?
