Re: Looking for best defrag program

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Stop and think. The defrag that comes with XP has been well tested. It's
problem, if any, is only from other trash users install on their systems.
You must then ask yourself why install other trash/programs not needed and
clutter up your system?
I.E. Use common sense. If you don't care, just install anything with the
name Norton.

Is there a consensus out there about the best defrag program for XP?
Diskeeper or Perfect Disk, or are the differences negligible? Is there
another contender I should consider?



Ahhh. The things you learn if only you take the time to read. Now I know
that Microsoft programs are error free. That sure takes a load off of my
mind. But if it is true, as I've been told, that MS's defrag is a
recycled/rehashed version of the old Norton defrag does that mean that
_all_ old Norton programs are error free too? It gets so confusing
sometimes...
