These are defaults with Windows XP. They are harmless.

I wasn't worried that they would be harmful though. Nothing harmful ever
gets in on my comp (knock on wood), never has during my 15 years on the
internet.
I've checked the install logs of all my latest apps I've installed and none
of them installed these values.
Thing is I want to know what everything does and to what program or process
it belongs to. Just a control freak :)

I have never before had this in my RUN key. I won't be satisfied until I
know to what it belongs ;)

Thx again.
Though I still don't know what action or which app that put these keys and
values in my registry.

I suppose that Outlook is responsible for this, but since I've had Outlook
for many years without this key (optionalcomponents) I am guesssing it's some
action I've taken in the options of Outlook 2003.

No. Windows XP put them there. I have the same keys and I do not have
Outlook.

Just like the xerox folder in C:\Program Files\xerox I have nothing related
to xerox, except for this.

Weird, how could I hav missed that key for all these years. Scary, but I
believe you. I will, though, install a fresh XP just to see if it's there
from the start or if an update has put it there.

Thank you :)
