  • Entries named "ig-ec" and pointing to "<$PROGRAMFILES>\*\*.exe?co".
Important: There are more autorun entries that cannot be safely described in simple words. Please use Spybot-S&D to remove them.

Files:

Please use Windows Explorer or another file manager of your choice to locate and delete these files.
  • The file at "<$COMMONPROGRAMS>\Suprem-tec\Beyond.lnk".
  • The file at "<$COMMONPROGRAMS>\Suprem-tec\Uninstall Beyond.lnk".
  • The file at "<$PROGRAMFILES>\<$REGMATCH1>\help.chm".
  • The file at "<$PROGRAMFILES>\<$REGMATCH1>\Log\Text\beytxt.dat".

You will have to use a global search for files without a name specified. Be extra careful, because just the name might not be enough to identify files!
