Register modified

Hello,

Could somebody tell me what the following lines mean when they are added to the register? Is it some kind of advertising junk?

-----------------------------------------------------------------
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\New Windows\Allow\]
"*.cracks.am"=hex:
"*.allcracks.net"=hex:
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Hope somebody can tell me, cause I accidentally allowed this modification to take place on a system.

Thanks,

PiC

That registry key lists the sites that are allowed to have popup windows in IE. I'm guessing you don't want popups from "*.crack.am" and "*.allcracks.net", so you can delete those registry keys.

No don't want them to pop up. I'll remove them.
