This is spyware. PowerReg Scheduler.exe and PowerReg SchedulerV2.exe are installed along with PowerQuest’s Partition Magic.

Joe -

I did some more google on PowerReg Scheduler and found assorted links. It wasn't just Partition Magic. Maybe it's a legitimate program. Perhaps someone would tell us. Good day!

This is precisely why everyone should learn to read HiJack This logs; after a while you get a pretty good idea of what belongs on your machine and what doesn't. It's a lot easier to read a log from your own, personal unit because you pretty well know what belongs there and what doesn't. It's harder and more dangerous (for the owner of the unit) when you read someone else's log and try to decipher it.

Regarding HiJack This (HJT) logs, I agree with ranchhand. One site I know that allows you to post your HJT is at http://forum.aumha.org/viewtopic.php?t=4075. Make sure you follow the instructions set forth at that link.

Good luck
