registery has parasite

[Guest]

I used SpyHunter to find errors. Says I have a parasite called SeekSeek {57AOE747-386... Location; HKEY_CLASSE... Type; Registery Being a free version it will not remove it. I do not know how or where to find it. Any help appreciated.

With that much information you could do a manual regedit, using a run of
regedit.exe

Open the left pane tree, Explorer style by clicking + boxes to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{57A0E747-
It will be longer, but that should be enough to identify it)
Highlight it and use File - Export just *in case* you wanted to put it
back

If you open it one further, it will probably have a lower level
InProcServer32 - highlight that and it should indicate on the right what
the nasty file is, so you could rename that to be harmless. Then
highlight the {57A0E7 level and Delete.
