Hi there,

Want to thank you for your great service and advice on ridding COMPLETELY the systems of these tracking cookies etc.

Wonder if you can further advise on these 2 lines ... my system shows both files with the 0x000000001 (1) following the file i Internet Settings - should they be removed? Is that synonomous with the files listed? THANK YOU AGAIN!!

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings “CertificateRevocation” = ’0
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings “WarnonBadCertRecving” = ’0

You can keep the registry entries there. Just remove the adware and unwanted programs from Control Panel, and reset all browser settings. Your PC will be fine.
