scrooge, the ones you know what they are you can get rid of, they will still work, they just wont be in the start menu, but the ones that you don't know what they are I would leave alone and try to find out what they are. Virus protector you need to leave there. But the add blocker, if it works keep it but if not I would drop it. the instant messanger I would drop and only use it when you need it. Printer help you don't need in your start menu.
I am searching around to see what each one can be. This is what I have..
iamapp = C:\Program Files\Norton Personal Firewall\IAMAPP.EXE
CTRegRun (CTRegRun.exe) For Creative Soundblaster Live! series soundcards. Reminds you to register your card with Creative. Not required
Also I am going to copy and paste from virtual dr about run.dll32
msmsgs.exe
is this msn messenger? windows messenger? what is it? do i need it as i don't use messengers, if not how do i get rid of it.
also i got this also FUXNEKYC.exe no clue what that is either ( isearch microsoft, google, mamma.com notihng)

This is MSN messenger you can remove it by going to ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS if its not listed in there then
START->RUN
then type copy and paste this into it and enter
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove
As for FUXNEKYC.exe i would run Spybot S&D and see if that removes.
Ive never heard of it that.
