I keep getting registry entries that Spybot keeps coming
uo with in their scan;
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-1\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current
Version\Internet Settings\Zones\0\1004!=W=3. This one and
four others similar but slightly different.
They ask to put a check mark in the box opposite their
names and the program will delete them. Since they are
Registry items I wonder if they should be deleted?
