Cleaning up computer

[hud49]

I'm working on my daughter's computer and ran a HiJackThis on her Windows 98 system. Here is the log and maybe you could see if there's some things that need removal. Liz told me RealPlayer has to go, but I don't know how to proceed cause it's such an old system.

Hi carol and welcome back first of all..

Liz and I see Real player the same. I feel it is a little too intrusive and never allow it on any of my systems and at least recommend removing it from any startup folders but the remaining is clean..

The problem, mobo, is that if you don't get it out of regedit, real player has a BAD habit of coming back. Liz

I knew I had a link for it so here it is..

Thank you, Mobo! I was able to do the standard uninstall and I ran another HJT and it's clear.
