Within the registry if you go to folders:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software
Microsoft
Windows
Current Version
Internet Settings
Zone Map
Domains

Would like to know if the Domains in this folder can be deleted without any conflicts with the computer? Roughly have around 300 site names in the Domains folder and want to delete them. Should I just delete each one in the Domains folder or delete the Domains folder itself?

Thanks for the info!

I believe these are domains that XP restricts access to by default. I deleted them once and had a problem, Don't recall what it was. Back it up and try it.
