Hi

My XP machinces are running slower then usual. I intalled XP 6 months ago
and now users are complaining that their machines are working slower then
normal. I reinstalled the Win XP on one of the computer and this computer is
working normally. We have not made any changes on our network and we have not
installed any new software on the client computers. These machines are
completely clean.


How do you know that?


Has any one encoutered this kind of problem?


There are very problems that are unique to a single user. I've never
personally experienced it on any of my XP machines, though.


Does XP become slower over the time?


No.


Do we need to reinstall it after some time?


No.


Secondly, Can anyone recommend good registry cleaner and system cleaner
software to tune up my xp machine?


There is no such thing as a "good registry cleaner" or good "system
cleaner software." Registry cleaning programs are *all* snake oil.
Cleaning of the registry isn't needed and is dangerous. Leave the
registry alone and don't use any registry cleaner. Despite what many
people think, and what vendors of registry cleaning software try to
convince you of, having unused registry entries doesn't really hurt
you.

The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner erroneously
removing an entry you need is far greater than any potential benefit
it may have.
