What is TacOnlyOne?

[Escalader]

When I ran CCleaner version 618 with the registry scan feature this AM I got the following:

Unused File Extension TacOnlyOne - HKCR\TacOnlyOne

This has occurred several days in a row so it regenerates it self.

SAS and Nod 32 report nothing.

Has anybody here got a clue as to what this is?

A google search reveals that it could be a rogue.

See if there are the following processes and if yes terminate them:


MWLauncher.exe
Install1.exe

Find and delete these files:

MWLauncher.exe
Install1.exe


Search for and Remove the following MalWarrior registry keys:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TacOnlyOne\MalWarrior
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adsl Software Limited\MalWarrior 2007
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CLASSES\TacOnlyOne\MalWarrior

Thank you. I have searched for the exe's mentioned and they are not on my set up.

A search with jv16 PowerTools 2008 for these keys and programs shows they are NOT present.

I do have Lavasoft's digital lock SW and the registry search showed the entry relates to that SW. Lava must be using their encryption software.

I will run full Nod32 and SAS scans to be "sure".

it's a registry entry used so that a program knows it should only run
one copy of itself at a time, thus the name.

Hope that applies in your case and not any other reason.
