Best free registry cleaner

Avoid all the registry cleaners like the plague - they are free
or not. Registry cleaning programs are all snake oil. Cleaning of
the register is not necessary and is dangerous. Let the single registry
and do not use any registry cleaner. Despite what many people think,.
and what registry cleaning software vendors try to convince you,
have unused registry entries is not really make you hurt.
The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner by mistake
delete an entry you need is much greater than any potential benefit
It can have.
Read http://www.edbott.com/weblog/archives/000643.htmland http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099
Let me stress that neither me nor anyone else who warns the
use of registry cleaners never said that they always cause
problems. If they have always caused problems, they would disappear from
the market almost immediately. Many people have used a registry
cleaner and never had a problem with it.The problem with a registry cleaner is that it carries with it
the risk of a significant problem. And since there is no
benefits of using a registry cleaner, running that risk is a very bad
good deal.

Free music, you mean legal music? Sorry I had to ask, but the music is usually paid for and not free. Give most of the download sites free tracks, including iTunes - Sainte-Cécile - EP of the Foo Fighters is free on iTunes at the moment around the world
Game Google also offer free titles... it not what the rest of us do, pay for it.

Please help me. What is the best antivirus? capable of detecting all viruses
Please help me. What is the best antivirus? capable of detecting all viruses
I would recommend mse, and here is the important part, XP as a limited user. If you are running as an administrator, a virus can make any chages to your system, including tampering with any AV you have installed, mse, windows firewall up and running as a limited user must provide a lot of protection,
http://voices.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2006/05/the_importance_of_the_limited.html
running as a limited user can be an inconvience initially, but once you learn how to adapt to it, your pc will be more secure and your exoierence of the user shouldn't be touched that.

What is the best way to "clean up/free space" on my computer? Thank you
What is the best way to clean/free up space on my computer? Even do not know where to look to see how much space I use... Thank you.
A loss of main surface within each user profile would be penchant of EI for the storage of copies (or much) of almost every web page, your friend has already visited. Try to reduce the amount of temporary Internet files put in cache, which is huge by default. I always bring it back to a maximum of 50 MB. In Internet Explorer, click on tools > Internet Options > general, temporary files > settings.
Same principle for the Java cache. Start > Control Panel > Java > temporary Internet files > settings.
The System Volume Information is the folder in restoration of which WinXP system feature stores information to retrieve errors. By default, Windows XP sets aside a maximum of 12% of the size of the partition to store the information of the System Volume, but the amount of space reserved for this purpose can be adjusted by the user. Start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > System Restore Settings, select the relevant partition and click settings. If you don't want to use the system at all, restore simply to turn off System Restore (start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system, System Restore settings restore) and restart. This will remove all your Restore Points, thus freeing up hard disk space.
An another great space waster may be trash. By default, it takes up to 10% of the capacity of your hard drive. On today's big hard disks, it's a lot of waste. It can be set to a lower limit by right clicking the desktop Receycle Bin icon, select Properties, and using the scroll bar to reduce the maximum size to something more reasonable - 1% to 2% should be more than enough space.
