Answer 1

It not a good idea to delete ANYTHING from the registry unless you're 110% sure that you know what it is, and know what affect deleting it will have. You're not, so dont.

Answer 2

MESS WITH YOUR REGISTRY .... U BETTER HAVE OS CD DISK READY TO RE:INSTALL OS ........... LEAVE IT ALONE IF YOU HAVE TO ASK ?'S ABOUT IT MEANS YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING ...STOP PLAYING!!!!!

Answer 3

Dont delete those entries and better download and run a registry cleaner software to remove unwanted entries in the computer.

Answer 4

RunOnce & RunOnceEx are not programs!  What is in the right view pane ? Why do you want to delete anything anyway ? I would not recommend playing around with regedit. Or if you must do then take a full backup of your registry first.

Actually: NO It Is Not A Good Idea.
