I did a free scan with the new Kapersky Security. It found no malware but
found these 'vulnerabilities' Are these of any importance, or should I just
ignore this stuff?

1. C:\Program Files (x86)\WebEx\Record Playback\atasanot.exe
2. C:\Program Files (x86)\Winamp\winamp.exe
3. C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\NPSWF64_11_2_202_235.dll
4. C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32_11_2_202_235.dll
5. "Invalid EXE files association"
6. "Invalid COM files association"
7. "Invalid BAT files association"
8. "Autorun from hard drives is allowed"
9. "Autorun from network drives is enabled"
10. "CD/DVD autorun is enabled"
11. "Removable media autorun is enabled"
12. "Microsoft Internet Explorer: clear history of typed URLs"
13. "Microsoft Internet Explorer - disable caching data received via
protected channel"
14. "Microsoft Internet Explorer: disable sending error reports"
15. "Microsoft Internet Explorer: clear the list of trusted domains"
16. "Microsoft Internet Explorer: clear list of pop-up blocker
exceptions"
17. "Microsoft Internet Explorer: enable cache autocleanup on browser
closing"
18. "Microsoft Internet Explorer: start page reset"

I would disable all the autorun items.
Winamp ? Dunno, maybe it's set to send out personal info, or
maybe it's a fake.
The other items could mean anything.
Try running malwarebytes ...

Why is "Autorun" from hard drive done? What is the purpose of that? A virtual CD ? Never heard of this.
