Well, I had him uncheck regwork.exe in the msconfig and reboot. The program
did not restart and then I had him uninstall the program through the Control
Panel and all seems well. Perhaps, it was a legit program, but now his PC is
running faster, according to him. It might be that MBAM removed something
else that caused the speedup.
He even ran MBAM in Full Scan in Safe Mode and got rid of all it found (only
about 10 entries, most of them cookies) except for a few Symantec entries.

Thanks for the replies.
