I try to run regedit on win 95. But got error:
"Memory access violation in module kernel32 at
8392:35259674".
I'd like to know what's wrong and how to fix it. Thanks.

The BitDefender repair tool, available at the bottom of this page:

will fix being blocked from regedit. I guess it gets the rest of Swen.
McAfee's stinger gets a variety, including Swen:
