    Default Question about Registry change

    Hah! Found you guys :D

    Trying to help a Spybot user in another forum. He keeps getting popups about this registry change? I see no problems in his HijackThis log, and that CSLID appears to belong to Adobe. Can anyone tell me what this change is or knows what this is?

    23-10-2005 15:17:43 Denied value "ITBarLayout" (new data: "") deleted in User-specific browser toolbar!
    23-10-2005 15:17:44 Denied value "{47833539-D0C5-4125-9FA8-0819E2EAAC93}" (new data: "") deleted in User-specific browser toolbar!

    This is the original thread if you need to see what we have done:

    CalamityJane:

    Have bladerider stop TeaTimer and let the change (looks like a delete of the Adobe Toolbar) take place. To do that:
    • Right click Spybot's TeaTimer System Tray Icon > click Exit Spybot-S&D Resident.
      • TeaTimer closes.

    Then have him restart TeaTimer as follows:
    • Using Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy.
    • Double click TeaTimer.exe to start it.

    I assume that something is trying to delete the following entry repetitively:
    • O3 - Toolbar: Adobe PDF - {47833539-D0C5-4125-9FA8-0819E2EAAC93} - C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Acrobat\AcroIEFavClient.dll

    It appears that when this change was initiated the TeaTimer pop-up dialog was answered with a "Deny change" "Remember this decision" or checked "Remember this decision" was check and the dialog was closed without answer either "Allow change" or "Deny change" and the problem escalated from there.

    There is addition things that bladerider should do but I think that should alleviate the current problem.

    Thanks for the reply md! I thought the same thing and I asked if he was trying to delete the toolbar...he said he was not.

    Well, Howdy, Bubba!

    We're fine...a little soggy (8 inches of rain in under 24 hours), but fine

    Good to see you here, too!!

    ~cleans glasses~ and this sinks in as about what Bubba was saying, I think

    So user error in closing the dialogue box without checking an action to take and Spybot was trying to delete it repetitively because it didn't know? And that turning off Teatimer and turning it back on again fixed the dilema?

    In the thread at DSLR I asked the user if they saw a Blocked registry changes entry under TeaTimer\Settings concerning ITBarLayout and their answer was yes.

    That told me they had previously on purpose or inadvertenly made a "Deny change". Since TeaTimer's reg snapshot prior to the toolbar addition did not have the toolbar as an entry....the user was receiving Registry change denied alert.

    Since musf says it about as good as anyone I'll quote his TeaTimer\Snapshot explanation.

Until these snapshots are updated you are likely to get pop-ups (at startup) of changes you made in the past. In other words, TeaTimer attempts to return the Registry to the state it was in when the snapshot was taken. This happens primarily when you reboot the system.
