After reading so much praise for SpywareBlaster, I downloaded the latest from it's home page and "Enabled" everything there is in both IE and Firefox (except the Flash), this thing doesn't seem to use any memory at all nor it runs in the back ground, however after installing this program I'm getting constant "Errors" and "WARNINGS" in my Event Log...Event ID 1517, Error Usernrv? something.....? Is this just me or this program trying to access "Active X" and XP SP2 doesn't like that?
XP Pro SP2/Admin AC(only a/c)
Thanks.

{QUOTE-> Windows XP and Windows Server 2003
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1517
Description:
Windows saved user ComputerName\UserName registry while an application or service was still using the registry during log off. The memory used by the user's registry has not been freed. The registry will be unloaded when it is no longer in use. This is caused by services running as a user account, try configuring the services to run in either the LocalService or NetworkService account. <-QUOTE}
{QUOTE-> CAUSE
This issue may occur if Microsoft Windows or third-party programs such as printer drivers or virus scanners do not stop and release resources when you log off your computer. <-QUOTE}

Thanks ski123 for your help and link!
Well, look what I found from MS! (See the Resolution/Status at the bottom). I'll install SpywareBlaster again :-) !
SYMPTOMS
After you run Sysprep on an installation of either Windows XP Professional or Windows XP Home Edition, the following warning message may be displayed in the application event log when you restart the computer:
