Hi,

Now and then I use Fix-it utilities to clean the registry. One key just
won't go away:

(3DA165B6-CC41-11d2-BDC6-OOC04F79EC6B) HKEY LOCAL
MACHINE (SOFTWARE \Classes \CLSID
The Program ID key is empty or invalid and can be deleted.
\{3DA165B6-CC41-11d2-BDC6-00C04F79EC6B} \ProgID

Does anybody know what it is and how to get rid of it?

Thanks,

Maya

I found (think so) what it is. I made a backup copy of the registry, then
exported it. Name is just TEST or something.
Then I openend it in Notepad (takes a long time...and dont touch any buttons
while it's working), then I copied the key into FIND and there it was. I
then deleted it (same: wait long) and saved it by choosing ALL FILES with
unicode and .reg at the end.
I then imported it in the registry editor and it was gone!

But after I used Fix-It utilities registry fixer, it was BACK! So I think
Fix-It puts it there..

Greetings,

Maya
