The Alexa registry entry is created by an IE 6 install or installation of an IE Service Pack. It is nothing to worry about. It is simply a registry key that creates a menu item that points to a local web page that points to an MSN search page that uses the Alexa engine
... If you use 'related links', IE will contact the Alexa servers to obtain information about other web pages which might be related. But you will not be spied on UNLESS you intentionally install other Alexa software, in which case PestPatrol will find and report a possible problem.
Il y a les rumeurs infondees, et il y a la realite, et c'est marrant, mais la realite est de mon cote.
