    Hkey_users S 1 5 21 Problem
    Not the best at computers, so thanks for your help. Lots of times when I'm on the internet, in the bottom right hand corner a box comes up from mcafee saying it doesn't recognize a change someone wants to make to my computer.

    It says:
    Internet explorer url's
    Change: registry modified

    c: program files
    Internet explorer.exe

    Affected items hkey_users\s-1-5-21 1081635173-2200288930-336076505-1007\software\microsoftint.explorer\main\window_pl acement.

    Then it says the source is from Microsoft corporation. This pops up constantly. When I run a scan, items detected keep coming up ever since this. It always asks if I want to allow or block this change. I don't know what to do.

    If mcafee says its from Microsoft, it may be a Windows update you need. I would allow.

    It sounds like it's simply trying to memorize where you last put the IE window. Allow it.
