    In the performance section I am told it is bad due do:

    HKCU\Software|Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FilesExts\.wmz\

    HKCU\Software|Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FilesExts\.wmd\

    HKCU\Software|Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FilesExts\.wms\

    I posted this question at a forum and was told not to run more that one anti virus. I am not. I even deleted all programs and ran the scan in safe mode but it will not clean these files.

    This forum is for the discussion of the installed version of Windows Live One Care. The forum for the Safety Scanner is here - http://boards.msn.com/safetyboards/board.aspx?BoardID=225  What you are trying to delete look like unused file extensions and deleting these registry entries will do nothing to improve the performance of your computer. Don't forget to install an antimalware program as soon as possible.
