Re: Which Registry Repair/System Maintainance software???
Mr. Hall gives good advice!

If you need a registry repair to get the system to boot, then you need one
procedure.
1. Back up your files (somehow) - this should be done regularly, and I'm
as guilty as anyone for not doing it often enough
2. repair the registry only enough to let the system boot
3. If it does, back up your files (can't be stressed enough)
4. Re-install the OS, and start over. (which gets rid of the registry
mess-up)

The only use for these things is in dire need. They can, and will cause
greif.
If your system boots, you don't want it.
Don't mess with a system that keeps your computer running, unless you're
prepared for the results.

Or for a more personal comparison:
Don't eat spicy food, unless you can take the results.
