Why do you think that HijackThis teachers and helpers strongly forbid the use of such programs that scan, copy and fix sensible computer files? Is it because they're stupid?

Sometimes, my mate, it's better to just listen to what smarter suggest, than to improvise and cry later. Better safe than sorry! And that's what you should keep in your head, if not the rest.
