Hello Everyone,
In the last 2-3 months, I have been installing and uninstall some software from the internet, things like Tortorrent download tools, software tools, Eclipse, NetBeans, Quick timer, iTunes.. etc.. a lot of them. Then after using them, I have uninstalled a few cuz I realized I no more need them. Now my Pc is running very slow. Also I faced a problem where this ccsvhost.exe (Norton related) stuff would eat up all the memory and cpu, I just found a work around I open up norton then disabled few kind of scans like messanger and such stuff or background scan, that helped me from norton slowing down the system. Having done all this good lot of crap.. Now I am feeling I need to clean up my registry. I understand that I am trying to install one more tool, but any tool that is worth installing and that might clean up my registry, without bothering me to buy the software in the middle of its job? I mean it totally annoys when it says so many issues are identified with your registry, but plz subscribe for it to further clean up :(. .. It will be a great help if anyone of you help me with this.
Thank you in advance.

Hi to you 750 rider, you are wrong, totally, I run all of these on my own pc, and I advise others to run it as well, it’s very good, I can vouch for that and I am an IT practitioner with long experience, and I know my onions.
Hi Rich, well I never had to do anything like that, this is the configuration I run now, and have done for a while. I stopped running it for a couple of weeks trying out other stuff, and my pc got root kit(which I got rid of with Panda) , and loadsa other c**p so I went back to the above and it runs well. Totally pleased with it.
I use XP and don’t like Vista, maybe that’s why it runs better…..

I was told to get a registry cleaner. Is this something that should be purchased or is there a good free ware one I can use?
Thanks People!!
