ok, so nearly as an experiment, I contracted the most common, in my experience anyways, spyware infection, mywebsearch. I did this after completely uninstalling my av and antispyware programs to show a friend how quickly I could fix it. upon downloading a file I knew was infected *a friend directed me to it* TADA! I have spyware. within the minute I had a full on infection. within 10 I had redownloaded AVAST! and Superantispyware. between the two they knocked it down well, I did some hunting in what I know of the registry, but now I have a question.
Due to a persistance, and tenacity, of mywebsearch, I downloaded Spybot S&D, and have some remnants. I have 4 registry items identified by Spybot that cannot be fixed by Spybot. some nonsense of I have to have administrator rights or run as administrator to fix selected items. so I'm at a crossroads. I am in the registry, am looking at the first of the items. do I just delete, or am I renaming? otherwise, how do I run as administrator?
