Trend Micro-PC- cillin Internet Security reads 247 viruses in WR.

Well technically viruses do not infect your registry. Malicious code will place entries in various locations in your registry so that malicious programs can start when you boot into Windows. What you are seeing in the report are registry links created by malicious software, but the links are not actually viruses.
Most antivirus programs will not clean your regsitry, you need an spyware removal tool for that. Try Counter Spy.
