I agree that I was a little quick in assuming that the OP had done a little
basic research on the applications he has installed, but any registry
tinkering should always be preceeded by a backup of that branch at least. I
know also that some quite benign applications can cause foul ups resulting
in those blanks. But having used the Systernals application with good
results, given those provisos I think it's worth a try if they're
intractable and causing concern.

Sorry to have wasted your time, Roy. As long as I don't know what the
purpose of the keys is, I'll let them live.

When I ran Rootkitrevealer, I was also fooling with some files that I
didn't need anymore, so that Sysinternals program got confused. As usual,
PEBCAK ...

I was paranoid when I saw a removable drive on my system in drive manager
that I couldn't place. Turns out, it's the USB interface on my Canon
printer <duh>. Then the rest came ...
