    Red face SD Resident - Browser Hijacker Desktop / Registry Change


    Hi

    After running SuperAntiSpyware, there were a number of infected files. After quarantining them and re-booting back into normal mode, SD Resident Teatimer popped up with the usual "detected an important registry change etc etc etc.

    Having quarantined the the infected files - should I Allow or Deny the registry change ??

    As you can see from the Teatimer log, I allowed some and denied others until I realized that I had no idea what was the correct process.

    More often than not when rebooting or starting up the computer, resident opens up these "important...detected" dialogue boxes - and if I can recall, they generally relate to a change in the google search and I think the other one is about the Start up Entry..

    I have to admit that these so called registry changes Allow or Deny have got me fairly confused - I generally Allow them and I'm now thinking that this may well be the cause of the warning box upon each reboot.


    My apologies if I have provided way too much info (screen shots!) but I think more is better than less !!!

    Until I hear back from you, I will leave my computer as it is, and hopefully this and your response will help to solve all this.

    Many thanks

    Hello,

    Please read this information about TeaTimer:
    http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/33.html
    and http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/34.html
    If you surf the web and without any user interaction the teatimer pops up and warns about a registry change it is better to "deny", but if you install something by yourself it is OK to "allow" the change.

    Best regards
