Which version of The Cleaner are you using ?

I don't have Juno 6 but I have Juno 5 installed as a backup
ISP incase my Qwest dsl is out of order and I have that registry
section called RunOnce also.

That said, my Adaware 6 does not seem to delete anything
from my Juno 5 installed components. I don't know about
Juno 6 however.

Adaware has a support forum but I searched for "Juno" and
did not find any talk of it.

I did a google.com search for "Juno has spyware" and go
no results.

I also don't see Juno listed on Spyware lists :

Unfortunately Moosoft's forum is down at the moment so I can't
ask there about it.

The Moosoft support area shows some newer files to get.
A file that was updated July 7th 2003 with the name of
The Cleaner Database.

I just downloaded Cleaner version 3.5 but I noticed that it
was last updated August of 2002. So perhaps Juno 6 came out
after that date ?

I have just run the old unupdated version 3.5 and it does
not flag any Juno files or registry stuff. And then I
ran 3.5 with all the new updates installed and got zip
also.

If you want to download all updates then Moosoft has them
zipped up here :

That still doesn't mean you are trojan free. There
are other trojan removers out there that might be worth
a look. Hopefully it is a false positive.

It's possible your Juno 6 has gotten corrupted. And
could use a reinstall after you use the backup wizard.

good luck,

JM
