moo.reg is a virus that comes with certain shareware versions of Kazza. Follow instructions below to eradicate - Whats moo.reg - moo.reg is a file the C based program mentioned above creates that will start up when u retsrat etc.. and holds some important but realy unnescicary stuff. It is unnessisary because it is alredy written to the disk correctly. How to get rid of it THIS MAY BE EASYER IN SAFE MODE TO DO THIS RESTART AND PRESS F8 RAPIDLY AND SLECT SAFE MODE YOU CANNOT ACESS THE INTERNET IN SAFE MODE SO PRINT THIS OUT BEFORE. 1. You'll probaly know the file that it comes from so go to C:\Program Files\KaZaA\My SHared Folder and back up all the files u want but not the infecded 1. (C:\Program Files\KaZaA is the defalt folder for kazaa u may have installed it else where) 2.Uninstall KaZaA 3.now restart 4.if that didnt work then try and click this link (don't bother link broken) and download KaZaA light it is a program without the adware and stuff download norton anti virus if you dont have a cd and then install it when its done restart and it should find an virus thats the moo.reg one follow the on screen instructions and poof its gone! Good Luck!
