You must be insane!
Use CCleaner or Jv16


Why would you or anyone use a registry cleaner?


There are no proven facts that cleaning the registry makes a system
run faster.


On the other hand, it is proven that you can totally FUBAR a system by
running useless system "tools" like a registry cleaner.


Cleaning out cookies, browser add-ons, adware, and defragging a HDD are
about the only preventive mainenance a PC requires, and will solve 95% of
slow computer related problems.


If it ain't broke, don't fix it.


Add in disabling unnecessary services and I'll agree with you. *If
someone's running Vista, Vista Services Optimizer works well. *It
tells you what all of the arcane services are, and makes
recommendations based on your intended use. *Preston Gralla
recommended it, it's easy to use, reversible and it's freeware.
