It is Spyware/Adware, detection was added yesterday.
Here are a few links from a google search about PowerReg;

Thanks for the reply!
Looks like that can be a pain to get rid of. I just let NOD delete it, re-booted and scanned again.
Clean the second time around.
Interesting, Spy Sweeper, SpyBot S&D, and Ad-Aware did not find this.

Unless I've missed something, the first one is in a restore point, isn't it?

In which case it would still keep appearing as NOD32/AMON did its "sweep", unless the OP (using the option in Disk Cleanup) or Windows (using the System Restore first in/first out theory) deleted the restore point? Is that correct?

{QUOTE-> In which case it would still keep appearing… <-QUOTE}I would think so, every virus that I've seen in System Restore reappears until SR is turned of and the system is rebooted...
Cheers ;D
