How can I kill these from Registry?

I have these annoying entries in Local
Machine/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Run:

D:\PROGRA~1\McAfee.com\Agent\mcupdate.exe
"E:\Program Files\TrojanHunter 4.2\THGuard.exe"
"D:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot

I no longer use McAfee (a virus attack - which McAfee failed to prevent -
screwed my system, so I was unable to delete McAfee properly). I now use
Avast! antivirus and ZoneAlarm firewall. I want rid of McAfee and Real
altogether, and I want TrojanHunterGuard just not to load on boot. But
every time I delete them from registry (and disable every option in
TrojanHunter and Real settings that I can see), they immediately reappear.
Why can't I kill them once and for all?

Thanks

Mr S
