Stop DEAMON TOOLS from auto starting

The AOL spyware program is still there. Id REALLY suggest removing it

'Registry cleaner pro' could easily have deleted something it shouldnt have

loksat

AOL spyware and Daemon were removed from start up. I change the system to normal boot insted of selective boot. Registry cleaner pro didnt remove anything. I only installed to check if it could help. But didnt delete anything thru it.. Just used it to scan.

Will try all those you have mentioned and let you know.

Thanks
