After cleaning a worm, I found that the runservices folder
is missing from my currentversion. (Maybe I deleted it,
but I don't think so). Things seem to work OK, but
subsequent virus fixes ask me to delete certain keys from
this folder. Is it there but hidden? How do i recreate it?
Do I need to worry about it?

Please reply to my email: (e-mail address removed)

Thanks!

What OS? SP? "runservices" may not even be used in your OS. IIRC
no NTx OS use this key. It's a Win9x-only key I believe but have not
checked this in a while.

What is "currentversion"?
Specify fully qualified paths in the future. Such as:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
\RunServices\
