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

OE downloads new messages in newsgroups, and sends posts I've written.
Time adjustor (atomic clock) works, and mail sends and receives, but not
A/V update.
Browsers "time out". This began when I removed zone alarm v. 7, because it
was so slow to load on startup, and installed a v.6 copy. System is
cluttered with unremoved ZA files. Am using Win xp firewall now. How to
clean computer totally of ZA
trash? With the v. 6 ZA, I used an installer/unintstaller name "Total
Uninstall", v. 2.3.5. On uninstalling the zone beast, TotUn was unable to
remove
many files and piles of registry entries. I can comb registry and remove all
ZA entries, and just delete the stuff in C:\Windows\System 32, but there is
no doubt a better safer way. TIA for any suggestions.
