Hi,
At the moment I'm running a scan using Spybot. The first thing I found was
the following message:
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-548039337-2906353147-2206293470-1006\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoLogOff
Might I ask you what I need to do with this? Remove or keep?

PS:
Additional information, as supplied by Spybot:
Functionality
Registry changes about the Windows Explorer.
If this Item is being found, it does not necessarily mean an infection.
Some Malware like CWS and Smitfraud variants change these settings.
It is also possible that these settings have been changed by an
administrator (if you have one) or by a legitimate software.
Changes to the Windows Explorer Settings include activation of the
Activedesktop, Controlpanel, Taskbar, Folders and Files
Description
These settings can normally not be reversed via the normal Windows User
Interface.
Some settings pose security risks and some are just annoyances.
Also, some settings are redundant, meaning that they can be changed at
various positions in the registry thus changing one value may not be enough.
