DONE! Years ago. If you have such solid footing, YOU provide
something. YOU are the one having problems with people believing your
misinformation; YOU pony up and prove it.

My own proof is many years of using same for many purposes over the
years on many systems of my own and that of clients. That means
experience and knowledge and detailed observations. What have ou got?
Everything I've said previously still goes.
Neither you nor any of your fellow supposed MVP and tossed-out MVPs
have EVER provided on iota of evidence to the contrary of what I've
said. Never. None. Not a word. One of your, what was the phrase, oh
yeah, "peon-parrots" once indicated a years old experience on one
machine with one such application and has since sworn off them forever
thanks to snake oil posts such as you and three others like to present.
But at least your "peon-parrot" admitted his situation and that he
hadn't touched one since then. You and your cohorts havent' even done
that much, even though your own experiences are very likely identical
IFF you have ever even used such an application. You guys are even
railing against your own Microsoft version of the same application, in
fact. As supposed MVP's that's forbidden to do.
So, entertainment aside, you are just plain wrong, have no way to
show anything other than the truth I've put forth. When one of you do
decide to talk about it at all, you pick out one tiny, insignificant
point, like, say, they don't make machines run faster. I never said
they DID! I said they CAN, and I also said they urually will not, and
that the picture us much larger than that. I think the term myopic fits
here too. None of you seem to have the reading comprehension of a
third grader, IMO, from what I've seen over the last few weeks.

Gee, there's that sig again; you're really cruisin' to get yourself
reported for spamming aren't you? No worry, it won't be me does that; I
don't bother with pinheads who don't know spam from shinola anyway on
newsgroups. I'd talk about scruples, but I know the word isn't likely
meaningful to you.

Thanks,

You have not provided any proof that a registry cleaner speeds up a
computer, yet you have said that a computer will 'limp along' if a registry
cleaner is not used. Your statement doesn't suggest 'can speed up'. It
suggests 'will speed up'.

Regclean 4.0 speeded up Win 9x because Win 9x did not cope well with an ever
growing registry. It cleaned out ONLY the safest of stuff within the
registry, but did NOT do anything approaching a full clean.

The NT family do not suffer the same issues as Win 9x, as they ignore
orphaned entries. Removing them makes no difference to performance.

Over time, I have tried out almost all of the registry cleaners available on
NT family operating systems, and NONE of them have ever given better
performance. What some have done is left the system partially crippled.

The only registry cleaner I ever use is Regcleaner 4.3 (JV16), but I do NOT
use it to get more performance. It is the ONLY registry cleaner of any value
when addressing registry entries created by malware and can save time. But
it doesn't always nail all of the bad entries, and there is still a need to
manually edit the registry.

The registry cleaners that one has to pay for are not worth a dime to the
average user or to anybody. They make claims which can't and never have been
substantiated other than in Windows 9x, and the only two trustworthy
registry cleaner for use on Win 9x were/are Regclean 4.0 and Regcleaner
(JV16).

You appear to know little about what an MVP is or does, and you will
probably say that you don't care. However, that doesn't stop you making wild
claims.

Who is my 'peon parrot? I have NEVER used that phrase.

Which MVPs have been 'tossed' out? We are never told by Microsoft why a name
has gone from the list of MVPs. The only way we find out is if the outgoing
MVP tells us. The three reasons of which I am aware are death, an input
reduction within the public community areas due to work or family issues, or
being taken into the Microsoft company because they have such specialized
knowledge.

Posts in the MS newsgroups over the years have shown that registry cleaners
can do more harm than good. Many of us have seen the effects of registry
cleaners with either clients coming to us to get their computers fixed, or
within large companies where individual employees have taken it upon
themselves to try to fix problems on their workstations by loading and
running registry cleaners.

It would be difficult to amass data on all of the above incidents, but it
shouldn't be too difficult for you to prove that registry cleaners speed up
and/or improve a computer, yet still you have not done that. All you have
done is point to spurious claims by the registry cleaner authors. The burden
of proof is on you, especially as your information might well lead to a
computer user handing over money to screw up their computer..

Regclean 4.0 was introduced to combat the Win 9x registry growing too much,
and I have NEVER argued that it was useless.

re NT based operating systems, they do not LIMP ALONG as you claim if no
registry cleaner is used on them. Neither do they require use of a registry
cleaner as part of a regular maintenance routine. They certainly do NOT
speed up a computer, and removal of orphaned entries serves no useful
purposes regarding the operation of an NT based operating systems.

The JV16 registry cleaner (NOT a Microsoft product) will not speed up a
computer after it has been run. Neither will it automatically remove harmful
entries. What it can do is help in the process of finding bad entries.

It does NOT do what YOU claim registry cleaners will do. For the benefit of
those who you try to persuade re the use of registry cleaners and their
ability to improve a computers performance, provide proof of your claims
which you say that you have, Product advertising blurb does not count.

That's not what I said, but, after years of NO maintenance, assumed
they're not sitting on a high shelf unused, they will certainly "limp
along". You just want to put things into the context of win98, years
old info, and single-minded content. Go ahead, but it's not effective
nor is it relevant.

I didn't say it was "required", though I agreed with one person who did
so. It won't help much, but it also will NOT hurt a thing. As anyone
who does so knows. Go ahead; repeat that ANY registry cleaner WILL

You are so lost; it's not about the simple points you keep wanting to
make. You need to step back and see the wole picture, not just the
pretty trees you like looking at.

Then go read the original content I posted to your cohort a few years
back. I don't chew my food twice. You're becoming as boring as you are
wrong. You want "you first" responses simply to keep from showing that
you have nothing in reality to support your case, including experience
and especially any valid testing, all of which I have for my case.

Thanks again,

Funny how when you snip the original quote and context, all of a sudden
it *appears* you are winning the argument. Unfortunately, most of us are

Just to refresh your memory, Twayne, Mike stated:

Mike was providing context. In other words, while cleaning the registry
(or at least *parts* of the registry) had value for systems running
Windows 95 or Windows 98, they no longer have the same value because XP
is a totally different system where orphaned reigtry entries are not a
problem.

Exactly so.. Win 9x is a relic, and with it the fact that the registry needs
cleaning out a little now and again..

You are back pedaling on almost everything that you have stated, and still
haven't produced proof for your claim that a registry cleaner is all good
for all systems, will prevent a computer from 'limping along', and should be
used as part of general computer housekeeping for the benefit of those who
ask.

In deference to your claims, I ran two registry cleaners on my system
recently.

CCleaner did its job, after which I had to reboot twice. It took twenty five
minutes for my system to recover from the shock..

Regseeker found many problems which I let it fix. After the reboot, my
system staggered back to life and left me having to do a Windows system
restore.

Further back in time, I tried Uniblue registry cleaner on an XP system after
reading that users of the utility had their systems trashed and, sure
enough, it trashed mine, resulting in a complete clean install.

There is no way that I can recommend use of registry cleaners as either
system improvers or as part of regular maintenance, especially registry
cleaners for which the computer user has to pay to watch their system crash
out.

When a registry cleaner says it has completed, users believe that the
registry has been cleaned out of all crap. The truth is a world away, and
the only time that all crap is cleaned out of registry anything like
completely is when the user is forced into executing a destructive restore.
