this "eusing" is a registry cleaner they tend to do more damage than good.

If this program has an undo, then I would use that to get back to where you were.

Once there, I would STOP using ANY registry cleaner.
Also uninstall this eusing.

Many thx for the reply i have learnt my lesson i will delete it the program does have a (restore previous registry option) which puts all that is deleted into a backup file but sorry to say i had a look and its empty. there is a tech support option on this but i dont know if its safe to e-mail them i know this web site is ok what do you think should i e-mail them thanks Mark

Yes, I would email them, but do not mention anything about removing their product.
If you do, they then just may not help you get things working as they should.
