HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun "garbage file name"

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun "garbage file name.exe"

Where it says garbage file name this is a randomly generated file name like..abggy1. exe or another nonsensical file name.

change this to read:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftInternet ExplorerDownload "CheckExeSignatures" = 'yes'

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInternet Settings "WarnonBadCertRecving" = '0′

Has anyone ever heard of Armstrong tools?

The shop that I work at recently got new Armstrong brand tools. I wanted to know if anyone has ever heard of or own this brand.

Armstrong tools are professional grade. They are quality tools. I have 2 sets of their ratchet wrenches and will never go back to any other brand. I work as a contractor in the middle east where there is no Snap-on, Mac, Sears to get replacements, I have used these wrenches for 5 years with no problems.
