Strange Startups & Winsock Entrys After Os Reinstall! Can Someone Check This Please

[wannabgeek]

Hi after a torrid few days of virus/Security worrys i decided to do a clean instalment of XP Home. I had recently changed Antivirus prog from Norton 2003 AV to ez AV (e Trust) And now i am getting the SAME questionable Winsock LSP errors in 'spybot' that i had before the reinstalment I am not sure if these are false positives! I have checked with Google but nothing on the subject Also i managed to loose all my settings/progs due to HD corruption and so i have to secure my OS all over again which is a right pain, whilst doing this i came across these strange startup entrys...again in 'Spybot'! Ii have never seen these before and what makes this strange is all my other progs do not have them listed! (Other installed programs below) THANKS!!

Well Vetredir.dir is part of VET Anti Vir by the looks of things, have you had this installed before? Did you use the mesh recovery CD at all? If so perhaps it installs as part of recovery
