Re: Handyperson's guide to removal of SONY ROOTKIT Don't mind me - to MY mind, things like this should be automatic - at least STOPPING them, even if our forte in being small isn't cleaning up useless, dead entrails. Reality is that a LOT of that junk can sit in the registry, and the file system SO LONG AS it never RUNS again. "Perfect" cleanups of garbage are best left to "scanners," Our job is to just STOP it.
I would have gone the DACL and SID tricks route but was afraid that this was already too complex for most folks, and preferred to go for that which is a little less "obtuse" to "non-admins." At least in REGEDT32, they can "See" this stuff. Just my own mindset, Nancy's 80 year old mother surfs the net and is certainly not someone you want editing a registry. 
That's who *I* "work" for ... the less people have to do or think about, the saner *I* am. (grin)
