    Yes.

    Edit: But be careful of what you let it remove, if any malware is found.

    Thanks for the reply, i run the program and the file below was found;

     

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\A8FD2B145484D7841B39F7345A3263CC -> Adware.YourSiteBar : Ignored

    ::Report End
     
    Is this safe to remove. I run Spyweeper, lavasoft amd Microsoft spyware and they do not pick up this malware.

    Run a Google search for "YourSiteBar" and see if there are manual removal instructions, like from Symantec, or some other trusted source.
     
    It might be a false positive, but see if the instructions help you find signs of it. Good luck!!
