It is a registration reminder and nothing else! It is hilarious to read some of the claims of damage; Hardware Driver compatability problems (lol), preventing MSCONFIG from running (rafl), shutting down a PC (lmfao)!!! Oh, hold on i take all that back - It just broke my coffee maker!

My computer has been crashing randomly for sometime now. I'm pretty sure powerReg is the cause. I don't know how to get rid of it!

Something strange about this executable. On my machine, the method of installation was to place the actual executable in the "C:\documents and Settings\ user name \Start Menu\Programs\Startup" directory rather than just placing a link there, and installing the executable somewhere else. This seems seriously suspicious to me, although I was able to delete the .exe file when I booted to safe mode. Conclusion: Extremely suspicious, but unknown quantity.

its a scheduler that comes with all sorts of programs; it shows a popup that says "Register Now" or somthing like that and collects info

Installed with ZoneAlarm, spybot caught and killed most of it. Had to turn off system restore and delete all the restore points. Also had to activate "Clear virtual cache on shut down" to get rid of it. The damage it caused to my registry is going to take some time to fix.

According to Leader Technologies, it is only a "Registration" program for whatever utility you have installed. For Example, if you install BOINC Climate Change Experiment software, you will be asked to Register. Leader Technologies insist this is a once only act, and lies dormant after registration. However, if you select to register later, it will place a shortcut in your Startup folder.

came with Gothic 2, prevents you from running msconfig, so you cant remove it. I had to load a previous back-up but it reinstalled next time it ran.

It messed up my computor, Microsoft security scan Identified 6 threats asscociated with this programme, but could only uninstall a couple of them as 2 components were in the system restore. It may not be too bad when working normally, but when it goes wrong it really gooses your computor.

it is malware it collects unknown information it also copies itself every time you try to disable it and any program that does that can not be good for your computer (including internet explroer)

any program that gets into your computer without asking cannot be good, especially if it cannot be removed with the add/remove tool

It collects information for Leader Technologies, and thus it is classified as non-harmful spyware. However, it crashes Windows (BSOD) because of interferance to certain Hardware Drive devices, such as DSL modems & certain CD/DVD-RW.
