In hkey_local_machine/software/classes

I found some registry keys named msime.taiwan, msime.japan and a couple others with similar names, except with a number at the end of, so there was 4 keys altogether. From what I know itmcoulc be associated with a thing in windows that lets you write japanese characters or whatever. I also found a macaffee page, , which seemed dated but it said the key is created by a virus named w32 virut.

Just wondering is this a legit key? I found it on another pc and both pcs show when exported to a .txt show it was last written to in 2009.

Here is the reg query for the 4 keys. (added lines to differentiate them.)
