Which Vista Registry Cleaner Is The Best? »

What registry cleaners are legitimate and safe to use?

My biggest concern is, I’m wary letting a program dig into my computer, I have no way of knowing if it’s going to imbed spyware or virus or something on my system, or steal my information. I see pop-ups for cleaners all the time, but they don’t come off as legitimate.

CCleaner: http://www.ccleaner.com/

Advanced WindowsCare Personal Edition: http://www.iobit.com/advancedwindowscareper.html

Glary Utilities: http://www.glaryutilities.com/gu.html

* I’ve used them all at one time or another, and they all have their good points. Right now I’m using Glary Utilities and I think it’s pretty good. Experiment, have fun…
but remember to always have your registry tool back up the changes it makes ;-)

NOTE: CCleaner is a good general cleaning utility besides its registry cleaner.

    I have used PCTools "Registry Mechanic" for years on hundreds of computers and never had a problem.

    I’ve recently been using TuneUp Utilities 2007, now 2008, on many problem computers and have also had very good results.

    Both work very well. However, there is always a "slim chance" that they could glitch your system. Registry cleaners aren’t for everyone.
