Unless you know exactly what you're doing, you should rely

True.

Registry cleaners often claim to speed up your machine by
removing such entries. The claim is false: There is no difference
in speed before and after.

False. I see a marked improvement in performance and boot up time,
especially when using CCleaner and SystemSuite5 after a clean install of
XP and Office.

Let's have some details:
- What exactly did you measure, i.e. what was your benchmark test?
- How did you measure it? Did it "feel" faster? Did you use a stopwatch?
- What was the improvement?
- Was this a once of test or were you able to see a consistent
improvement
on many different machines?

Unless you supply full details it won't be possible for other
readers to duplicate your tests and confirm your results.


Stop watch. Dozens and dozens of machines. I just cleaned up a computer
that took TEN MINUTES to boot up. Now it boots up in 46 seconds. Enough of
a benchmark for you? I removed almost a THOUSAND errant registry entries.

Your assertions are patently false (in crude terms 'lies') and unfortunately
I think you know it. This thread is nothing but SPAM. I am suprised that
anyone has given you any credence.
