CCleaner is recommend 'round here, and I've used it. However, I don't think that any one cleaner catches it all. For example, on my own box, I just dumped Nero 6 to install Nero 7. After the uninstall of 6, I ran four different cleaners (CCleaner was one) and they all caught something that the others didn't.

I agree with TwoRails.
I usually recommend CCleaner or, for the more tech inclined, RegCleaner.
If you've already got a registry cleaner you're happy with then keep it.
