Receiving unknown messages in Skype and Yahoo Messenger

Problem reported:
After logging into Skype and Yahoo Messenger user receives unknown automatic messages from the contact lists.
Please refer to the attached screenshots.
 
 
Solution:
Checked below Registry path and found incorrect startup entry of JUSCHED.EXE.
 
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run"
 
Deleted the file from c:\windows folder and cleared the Messages History from the respective Messengers.
 
Note: The genuine Java(TM) Update Scheduler (jusched.exe) file should be available in the path where Java is installed default on the system and not in \windows folder.
