your question alone suggests that you don’t know a massive amount about computers, the registry is a huge maze of keys and values that even the most techy person only has a vague knowledge of – if you go in there and start deleting stuff willy nilly i can guarantee you’re going to f*ck up your system really badly.

by all means run anti-spyware programs and anti-virus programs but don’t go near the registry cos if you don’t know what you’re doing it’ll cost you a bomb to have your pc fixed by a pro when you kill it by deleting something you shouldn’t.

i fix pc’s all the time, and i’ve never had anything spyware related that needed me to go into the registry – most things can be fixed purely at disk level.

by the way, if one of the programs you’re running isn’t ad-aware then you’ve the wrong set of spyware programs on the job.
