What is the best download utility to buy, to clean/repair and protect my Registry?

December 2, 2009

A Registry Mechanic (installed on my Desktop) scan showed 24 shared DLL’s, 75 Temporary/Shortcut and 14 Deep Scan problems/errors. Unfortunately, I’m not a computer nerd and so, I don’t know what all that stuff means. I haven’t purchased it (Registry Mechanic/PC Tools), yet. I don’t know what a computer "registry" is.

I’m also receiving prompts telling me I have both application and stop (and some other type of error I don’t remember) errors.

My computer’s security programs consist of the following freeware: Ad-Aware SE Personal; Spybot Search & Destroy, and SpywareBlaster for malware/anti-spyware purposes; and for a firewall, ZoneAlarm.

I have an unpurchased/not registered Spy Sweeper (Webroot) on my Desktop which I use for scan purposes.

My only registered/purchased (anti-virus) program is AVG Professional, from Czechoslovakia, and I’m in the last year of their two-year program. I have no big complaints about them. If there’s a better one, I’m not aware of it

What is the best place to reseach virus protection?

June 26, 2009

I am up for a new subscription on my Webroot, but would like to research if this is adequate enough to renew. It seems to have worked so far that I know of. I would like to know what are the best websites to help me, without being one that praises a product because the company that owns it paid a lot for advertising. Also, what are your opinons about virus protection programs that are available.
