 Post subject: Free registry cleaner – Is it reliable or not?
New postPosted: Thu Sep 08, 2011 6:05 am 

I’ve noticed so many websites offering registry cleaner freeware of many top programs. What is the truth behind it? Can a top registry cleaner be downloaded for free? I just want to know whether free ones are really effective for my PC. And, please recommend me the names of some trusted registry cleaners for Windows Vista. Thanks a lot!

Piriform actually produce CCleaner, it's far more preferable to download a software "straight from the horse's mouth" [whenever possible] than from a third party ........ that should be obvious to anybody! ;)

IMO, that's a negative. Filehippo/CNET has lets chance of malware than the original forum.
