Hi

Not that it matters, but most of what follows is true...

I have a clean install of Win 10. I re-installed Skype, and do not want it starting automatically, so I ran RegEdit and searched for 'runonce' which puts you in an area where you can see "run" which is for for things that start at bootup etc. Removed Skype and noticed *LABAL* was also there with an otherwise blank entry.

This is apparently malware, so I ran MalwareBytes 3 times. Nothing was found. I have deleted *LABAL* manually and will keep checking for it's return.

What the intent of this program is I cannot say, but I know I don't want it, whatever IT is.
