670742 2008-05-19 05:00:00 Most registry cleaners are just hot air. They can do more damage than good. CCleaner is the one to use. wratterus (105)
670743 2008-05-19 05:05:00 Can't beat CCleaner.

I've tried some of the others but they're just a gimmick.

While I will install CCleaner for people, it and others, do not clean everything from your registry.

Do a test. Run it and then go through manually and take a look.
Nortons for instance. It left most of it behind.
