There are only two that I will use that are safe. Wise registry cleaner and the one built into CCleaner.

Download CCleaner It is suggested to download the CCleaner - Slim - No Toolbar which is the version without the Yahoo! Toolbar.

Wise Registry Cleaner

cheers ef i was about to tell him there in the downloads when i realised i need to put them in there

[Mooseknuckle]

Thank you Evil...i already have CCleaner....i actually just remembered that and ran the registry cleaner on it and it fixed some of my problem

[evilfantasy]

Download Wise cleaner also. It goes a little deeper than CCleaner but still in a safe manner. I have removed everything found with no problems for a year or so now. It's a good tool along with their disk cleaner as well. You'll be surprised as to what all extra it will find.

Hi EvilFantasy,

I have loads of website registered in my Hkey_Local_Machine\Software\Windows\Internet Setting\ZoneMap\Domains. These websites look unfamiliar and scrupulous for me.

Is it safe to delete those manually? Can CCleaner and Wise Cleaner help me with these?

Thank you!

[evilfantasy]

Those are the Hosts file entries. They are good as those sites are blocked from adding anything malicious to the browser. Leave them.

Hi EvilFantasy,

Thank you for the info. I did try CCleaner and disk cleaner. They are very good. After the cleaning, my computer runs faster.

Again, thanks!

[evilfantasy]

No problem, glad to help.

I realise I'm a bit late, but I personally use Eusing Free Registry Cleaner. I've been using it for 18months without a problem.

Theres a new one called eraser dont know link sorry.
I use CCleaner and Registry Mechanic.

[evilfantasy]

Eraser isn't a registry cleaner. It is an advanced disk cleaner.
