Default Reg. error

Open MSCONFIG
click on the Startup tab
Click Cleanup - then OK - windows will ask to reboot
let it , and see if your error has gone - if not....

You may have a virus/spyware hijack

download the Stinger from here and run it to make sure that A-V-disabling
viruses are not present on your PC

- update your virus scanner and run a full system scan of all files.

Reboot to Safe Mode and run CWShredder - to remove variants of the
CoolWebSearch hijacker.
