I use a program to clear up my system processes. When I try and take a program of Autostart it says that it will delete that program from the registry. Is that okay, or is it bad to mess with the registry?

it is normal, you may have more than one instance of the same program for example I have 4 srvhost.exe on mine.

Hello!

Funny to see someone having th name firefox!

That was my name all over the Internet when I started to use it back in 1996(wow has it been 8 years allredy well time flies fast I guess). How did you come up with that name?

I stoped using it around 2000 and went by my regular name after that!.

I have been using that name now for at least 20 years. (Wow kinda showing my age) anyway, I have always owned a nice big red pickup, the first one I had, had flames coming down the sides of it. Once when I was traveling a trucker called me on the CB Radio and asked me if I had a call sign. I said no that I was new to the radio world. He said I should use Firefox because I was driving very fast, like 90 when the speed limit was 55 and the, He said foxes were fast, and then you have the fire, so Firefox.
