   personally i never use a registry cleaner,you could end up deleting entries that you didn’t want to. i’m more concerned that you say you get the ads for registry cleaners.it sound like you may have a virus.smitfraud or vundo.go to http://www.atribune.org for an excellent tool to remove vundo called vundofix.

   Really Necessary, NO. Good idea, Yes

   Two very good free ones are Ccleaner and Iobit Advanced Windowscare.

   Yes, because of a short period of time, with installs, and removals your registry becomes a junk yard. And slows down your PC.

   Here is what I use 100%, they ask for a donation, but only if you wish to donate. Plus no spyware/adware of viruses.

   http://www.ccleaner. com Will clean all junk files out of your system, and there is a registry cleaner that will allow you to save all keys that are cleaned. Myself over many years of use, this sofware has never made one mistake with my registry keys. I use Windows XP Pro. & Home.

   Registry cleaners will clean your registry, increasing performance slightly, but also making your system less prone to crashes.

   These programs can help you clean your registry for free. I personally like CCleaner and Advanced WindowsCare Personal because they do more than just clean my registry.

   1) CCleaner is a freeware system optimization and privacy tool. It removes unused files from your system – allowing Windows to run faster and freeing up valuable hard disk space. It also cleans traces of your online activities such as your Internet history. CCleaner also fixes your registry. But the best part is that it’s fast (normally taking less than a second to run) and contains NO Spyware or Adware.

   2) Advanced WindowsCare Personal is a comprehensive PC care utility that takes a one-click approach to help protect, repair, and optimize your computer.

   3) Eusing Free Registry Cleaner is a free registry repair software that allows you to safely clean and repair registry problems.

   4) Registry Distiller is a free registry cleaner that will optimize your system by removing obsolete and incorrect information from the registry, resulting in a faster computer that is less prone to errors.

   5) TweakNow RegCleaner Standard is a free registry cleaner that will scour your system’s registry for useless/unneeded registry entries and optionally remove these for you. These entries are often left behind after the removal of software, cluttering the registry and possibly hindering your system’s overall performance.
