Steve what you say about RegCure being a scam is sound reasoning. I was told of over a hundred problems detected during the scan and then left without further informtion, other than the usual offer of virus protections, at reasonable prices.

As for online scan link you provided, here is the results of the scan that I ran immediately after getting the link. I have always known that my PC is infected with adware, "6 infections" the lasttime I ran a scan several months ago. Because they are harmless, I just go with the flow. Unfortunately I have not attempted to remove thembecause of my ignorance. Maybe you can help me here.__Copied and pasted the results:__________________________________

These are "7" infections with adware. One more than the "6" I always knew exsisted.

Thanks for the link Steve.
