BTW, do you feel you really need to clean up your registry?
Well, my laptop has slowed a bit since new, and I have uninstalled about 5-6 programs & installed 3-4 programs. I also had a trojan virus(ActiveX) that I successfully removed with the free starter version of Spyware Doctor from the Google Pack.... Now to answer your question, I don't know!,lol.... I just figured that the laptops been through a lot and could use a good clean up. I'm open to other suggestions, if anyone has any. I've had the computer for about 7 months, and I'm online nearly everyday. I have defrag'd it with the defragger that came with Vista, but I've heard that I should get the Auslogics(?) Defrag program. I've never ran a disc clean-up, though. Is there anything to worry about when doing a disc clean-up(using the Vista provided clean-up tool)???? Thanks again, to anyone helping me out here, . Peace!
