With names like that these are probably startup entries that were

orphaned or leftover after removal of virus or spyware, you don't want

these files back on your computer! You can use different tools to find

out where these items are set to start and disable or delete the startup

entries. You can use tools like msconfig or the following to disable

these leftovers:

That message is a Good Thing and you don't want to replace those files.

 

The message indicates that your antivirus program is working, detected an

infection, and removed it. However, it didn't remove the launcher

reference, which you now have to do manually. The startup tab of msconfig

will show you where the reference is.

It's possible some malware was deleted by your a/v software, but the

reference to the file was not removed from the registry.

 

Click Start, Run, type REGEDIT, click OK. Press the Home key, press F3,

type the name of the file into the search pane. Click "Find Next", and

when located, delete the reference to the file. Press F3 to continue

the search.

 

You can click File, Export, and save the entry to the Desktop. If you

remove it and there's a problem, double-click the .reg file you exported

to the Desktop and it'll be added to the registry again. You can create

a restore point before editing the registry too.

 

You could click Start, Run, type MSCONFIG, click OK, click the StartUp

tab, and deselect the item(s). When you restart the computer, you will

be warned that you're running in the Diagnostic mode; click to not alert

you again, and OK out. You won't see the message again. But I think

it's best to just remove the references from the registry.
