I upgraded to a new version of Avira AntiVir (version 10) on my WinXP fully

updated computer, and the first full scan found one hidden object. Yet the

report says no viruses or unwanted programs were found. Version 9 never

found any hidden objects.



I tried to Google hidden objects but found mainly games--and many entries

for Avira version 10 finding these items.



My questions: What are hidden objects--and should I worry about them? For

what it's worth, I believe the report item is this:



Starting search for hidden objects.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ControlSet001\Services\NtmsSvc\Config\Standalone\drivelist

[NOTE] The registry entry is invisible.



Thank you very much!

I wouldn't worry about them unless there is undesirable behavior that

you can't otherwise explain. I usually get 3-4 indications of hidden

objects. No problems here so far.
