AS THE COUNTRY BOY SAID ABOUT HIS DAD'S CHEWING TOBACCO, "I THINK THIS IS A PLUG." Just installed the trial version of CleanMyPC Registry Cleaner, a program designed to clean junk items out of your Windows system registry. Like a beach innundated with medical waste, programs leave a lot of things behind for your system to step in, and CleanMyPC does a capable job taking care of the bricabrac. MSIE loaded significangly faster after the registry sweep, which makes me wonder if this might solve my BitTorrent problem, too. You can back up your registry keys from inside the program (in case you screw up royally at some point) and also has an option to lock your home page and search page against unauthorized changes. However, if a hijack lockdown is all you want to do, you should use Spybot Search & Destroy, which is an excellent program in its own area.
The demo is a 15 day trial, the main crippled part being that you can only delete the first two items in each scanned category.
