I have both jv16 & registry first aid and the funny thing
is both seen to find different things.

If you are intent on using a Registry Cleaner, it is best to only
use one product. Over use or running different cleaners will
eventually remove necessary components and then future runs
will continue to remove Class Identifiers, Active X components
that are valid but have been disassociated by the other cleaner.

Also, using different cleaners makes it much more difficult to
restore any keys that have been removed & must be restored.

Registry cleaners are really only useful on machines where a
large number of applications are removed and legacy keys are
left behind. Most software vendors are now offering a tool for
their applications to remove their Registry remnants.(Symantec,
Roxio...)
