As advised at a website I went to IE Tools/Internet Options/Temporary
Internet Files/Settings Button/View Objects/Downloaded Program Files, and
delete whatever there that appears as not installed. I have the following
that I need advise on:

Program File
Version

{33564D57-9980-0010-8000-00AA00389B71} 0,0,0,1
{556DDE35-E955-11D0-A707-000000521957} 0,0,01
{9F1C11AA-197B-4942-BA54-47A8489BB47F} 5,4,3790,14
{DC187740-46A9-11D5-A815-00B0D0428C0C} 0,0,0,1

Status : Unknown for all four.
Creation Date : The first two is unknown. The other two are at the time I
bought the computer 6 months ago.
Last Accessed : The first two is unknown. The other two are today.
Version : The third one has a close to similar number to another "installed"
one.

Is it safe for me to delete the four?
TIA

redownloaded.
Could you please clarify this a bit. The advise I got from the forum was to
delete only all that were not "installed". If they will be redownloaded when
reqd I'll be quite happy to delete all of them.

I scan my system regularly, almost daily. There is no malware. I use
Ad-aware SE, Spybot, CW Shredder and SpywareBlaster. I have a Kerio Personal
Firewall that has served me well. Hijack this is a bit hard to use for us
non geeks.
