There's no such thing as a stupid question, but they're the easiest to answer.

End of file - 4687 bytes

I was curious about certain files and was wondering if I could delete them:

1) O23 - Service: SecuROM User Access Service (V7) (UserAccess7) - Sony DADC Austria AG. - C:\WINDOWS\system32\UAService7.exe

No idea what this.

2) O23 - Service: Pml Driver HPZ12 - HP - C:\WINDOWS\system32\HPZipm12.exe

I used to have an HP printer. Is that what this is? If so I guess I can delete it or at least stop the process, right?

3) O23 - Service: PnkBstrA - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\system32\PnkBstrA.exe

(Not sure what this file is)

4) O23 - Service: StarWind iSCSI Service (StarWindService) - Rocket Division Software - C:\Program Files\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120\StarWind\StarWindService.exe

(I used to have a program called Alcohol 120, so I guess I could delete it)

5) O23 - Service: InstallDriver Table Manager (IDriverT) - Macrovision Corporation - C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Driver\1050\Intel 32\IDriverT.exe

(No idea what this is)

6) O23 - Service: Creative Service for CDROM Access - Creative Technology Ltd - C:\WINDOWS\system32\CTsvcCDA.exe

(I have a creative MP3 player. Is that what this is?)

7)O16 - DPF: {6E32070A-766D-4EE6-879C-DC1FA91D2FC3} (MUWebControl Class) - http://update.microsoft.com/microsof...?1142926527000

(This seems to be Windows update. Can I stop this through Hijack this and if not, where can I turn it manual updates?)

8) O2 - BHO: AcroIEHlprObj Class - {06849E9F-C8D7-4D59-B87D-784B7D6BE0B3} - C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Reader\ActiveX\AcroIEHelper.ocx

(Why is this running? I can just turn it off with Highjack this right?)


9) O9 - Extra button: AIM - {AC9E2541-2814-11d5-BC6D-00B0D0A1DE45} - C:\Program Files\AIM\aim.exe

O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Windows Messenger - {FB5F1910-F110-11d2-BB9E-00C04F795683} - C:\Pro


(I don't what any of these Extra Button or Tools are. Can I just delete them?)


10) O8 - Extra context menu item: E&xport to Microsoft Excel - res://C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~2\Office10\EXCEL.EXE/3000

(I have no idea if this really is Excel. If it is, no idea why it's running in the background. I guess I can just turn it off)


11) O23 - Service: ANIWZCSd Service (ANIWZCSdService) - Alpha Networks Inc. - C:\Program Files\ANI\ANIWZCS2 Service\ANIWZCSdS.exe

(This doesn't seem to be related to Avast, my anti-virus. I am not sure what it is)


Thank you for your help.
