Registry Maintenance Win XP - Your Fave?

Have you noticed that when you do a Google search you get more search results than useful results? And then when you search for reviews you get plenty of results that say Review in them like "Be the first to review this prodict..." And when you do find a descent looking review and scrutinize it you find it's on behalf of the publishers of the "winner"? Arrrgggh!! (sp?)

So from your practical experience, what is your favorite registry cleaner? I have RegCure 1.5 by ParetoLogic and RegCleaner (oops- that one won't start...). When I run RegCure it tells me all the wondrous things it's done. It also cleans out Most Recently Used files lists, which is an aggravation.

Whaddaya think? What do you use that you know really works well?

Thanks, - Dave Mc
