What is your experience with either product and Windows XP Pro SP#2?


I agree with John Barnett and Ted Ziegler. Registry cleaners should
rarely be used, and most often only to save time compared to what it
takes to do the cleaning manually.

I have no direct experience with the two products you mentioned.
However from the comments of others whom I know and who have used
these products they have nothing specific about them that makes them
any better than other products in this group.

When I do have to use a registry cleaner, such as when de-Nortoning a
system, I use RegSeeker (free) from http://www.hoverdesk.net/

I have never found it to be overly aggressive in terms of what it
removes and by default it creates a backup .REG file of whatever it
removes.

Good luck
