Default Registry cleaner ?

Kim Komando's tip of the day (07 Jan) has good words for
Microcraft's jv Power tools for cleaning the registry. I
believe it's freeware.

Has anyone used this program? Do you have any remarks or
recomendations?

It's probably the best, or one of the top 3. You will see /no
performance increase/, but it will NOT **** anything up, in
spite of all the kind warnings from people who have probably
never even tried one.

It WILL clean up left-over useless crap (I have seen MAYBE ten
programs in twenty years that REALLY uninstall EVERYTHING they
dump into the registry) and make your registry smaller and
cleaner - if you care about those things. There are various
other advantages, figure it out.

BTW, I have been using 4 different ones (including an older
version of the main module of JV16 power tools, BTW the one that
comes with this new suite is much better - it tells you EXACTLY
why something in the registry is useless) for over 10 years and
NEVER a problem.

JV16 PT has a suite of other very nice applications included as
well. /Very/ highly recommended.
