Unknown Registry Entry

by chewbaca . Updated 18 years, 6 months ago

I was browsing and accidentally clicked on a website which redirected me to “adultfriendfinder.com”
It posted “friends” who live in my City.
Where did it get that information & how can I block it?

I used my “Registry First Aid” — to look for unwanted entries — I typed in my City.
It found 2 entries in My Computer/HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-448539723-492894223-1060284298-1003\Software\Registration\Users\………
The dots represent one of my email addresses which had my entire snail mail information.

In this area that I discovered “BillBoard_PostReg”
I don’t know if there is any connection.
Please advise.
Thanks
