Although a reg cleaner may not be advised by some, I believe that some
utilities that clean registry entries are good especially those pesky BHOs
in the registry. I use S&D spybot & Hijack This which will remove those
registry entries. I also have been using jv16 and regcompact without any
side effects on XPSP2. But how clean do you need to be? Some orphaned links
are harmeless and some may prevent reloading software --- and sometimes its
a matter of turning off a service to load/reload.

Will the old Regclean that worked for Win98 also work for XP? I have it
installed, but I've not ran it yet.

Thanks
