SOLVED PUP's n' Stuff

[Bif]

Interesting thing this afternoon, I did my daily MalwareBytes scan and it never finds anything on my system since I started using it years ago...today it finds 6 PUP's all of which seem to be Microsoft programs as far as I read it.
Can anyone with more knowledge than myself on REGISTRY keys tell me from what I've posted if this is a false positive?
I really don't want to click clean and have it bugger up legit programs...
As always,thanks in advance!!

Here's the findings..

Bif I'm no expert on what you are requesting. But If Malwarebytes identifies any problem PUPs... or Registry entries, I delete them without hesitation, that's how much faith I have in their program.
I run Malwarebytes Premium, it worth every penny ($29) for piece of mind knowing your secure. If your in doubt, just leave the identified threats in quarantine. You can always delete them later.

Thanks for the info Norton..I clicked clean, rescanned and all happy again!...no ill effects at all.
I'm thinking about upgrading to premium as I just love their software as well..I'll mark this as solved.
Cheers
