"n/a" entry in Autoruns listings: what is it?
Hi!
Today I noticed something that wasn't there in past days:
"n/a" entries in Autoruns in
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components
and
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components
Respective registry entries:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\{89B4C1CD-B018-4511-B0A1-5476DBF70820}
and
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components\{89B4C1CD-B018-4511-B0A1-5476DBF70820}
...and images as well:
C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe
and
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\rundll32.exe
What about them? Why are they showing up? Can I safely prevent 'em from starting?
Thank You.
