Re: 3B Registry Repair Pro and spybot search & destroy

Hello and Welcome to TSF

After a long discussion, Chevy and I have come to the same conclusion - Registry Cleaners, while sometimes useful, can and will ultimately cause more problems than they solve.

My fundamental belief is that the best registry cleaner is no registry cleaner at all. Most people simply don't need it, and don't need to run one.
Many people reach for a registry cleaner when an application is having problems, or when Windows is misbehaving. The problem is that these types of situations rarely respond to registry "cleaning" - it often requires application or Windows-specific resolution.

Please refrain from advising that members use these utilities.


Thank you

This is a sample of the announcement posted in the Microsoft Support Forum, and we do believe these type of programs are harmful to the system.
