Scan Result

Hi all,
This is my first posting. After many years of using Spybot S&D the latest scan result revealed the following 3 items:-

21.08.2006 15:40:49 - found: Windows.Security.InternetExplorer Settings

My question: Is it safe to 'fix' (remove) theses registry items?

Many thanks in advance.
With best regards,

I suggest you "Fix selected problems" on those detections unless you experienced an issue such as the one described in the following article and intentionally changed those registry entries from their default setting:

• AutoShapes that were added to an HTML or an MHTML file in a Microsoft Office program do not appear when you open the file in Internet Explorer after you install Windows XP SP2
