Quarantine anything that you're not sure of. That way, if you find that you
need it, you can always click: Open Quarantine List, select the item, and
click the Restore button. Never just Delete an item, even if it seems that
it wouldn't be needed. I once deleted a data miner, and found that Family
Lawyer wouldn't run without it. I had to uninstall and then reinstall the
program. From then on, I Quarantined everything that I thought of deleting.
