I'm having a bit of difficult figuring out a Spybot message that just popped up. It says

Browser helper object
value: deleted
E0fefe40fbf942aeba58794ca7e3fb53

The box to deny the change is greyed out. Since I don't use IE and haven't installed any plugins lately I'm worrried that this is malware.

Can anyone tell me more about what I'm seeing & how I should proceed. Should I delete this registry change & if so how should I do it?

UPDATE: LOoks like it was related to Google Gears & hence I presume OK.

Well basically Teatimer is telling you that a BHO has been removed (very recently). This is more like an update. The reason you cannot deny it (it is greyed out) because Teatimer cannot prevent this change as it (the BHO) is "beyond recovering" (BHO=gone for good).

Can you post a log from Teatimer (there should be a show log option when you right click the icon in the taskbar)?

I didn't find anything related to the letters&numbers you have provided with Google.
