    Users of Ad-aware and Script Sentry may notice that Ad-aware identifies the registry entry HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\shell\open\command with the default value of C:\PROGRAM FILES\SCRIPT SENTRY\SCRIPTSENTRY.exe "%1" %* as a possible virus infection.

    Script Sentry is not a virus nor is it spyware.

    Hello rcerrato,

    This is what I get, put it on the ignore list.

    Vendor:Windows

    Size:-
    Location:regfile\shell\open\command " " ()
    Last Activity:12-18-2003

    Comment:(Ignored)
    Description:No Detail Information Available.

    This is a false positive that Ad-Aware was supposed to have fixed.

    Regards - Charles

    Considering that a REG file is associated by default to Regedit.Exe, I can see why it shows up.
