Title: Registry probs in XP Pro
Post by: cunninmp on February 16, 2005, 04:01:47 PM

Hi Everyone,
Just wondering if anyone has seen these entries before, they are located in the following location.

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings\ZoneMap\Domains\

Here is an example:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\600pics.com
Another example is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\cool-homepage.com

I must have over 500 of these and they all have a DWord value of 4.
I'm sure most all are safe to delete, but not 100% sure. I think some of this started when about.blank attacked my PC.
What do you think?

When you rid yourself of About:blank
What tools did you use to help prevent this again

You may want to post a hijackthis log, but most of those entries in the Zonemaps may be OK to be left there....
