People need to realize that ANY program that affects the Windows registry has the possibility of messing something up. That is why it is SO important to back up your registry before running any scanning software, whether it be Registry Booster or something else.
Yup, I followed the link and found that the guy was actually very impressed. Problem is that he is a self-described performance junkie and even the "tiniest improvement" in performance made him estatic!
I am not addicted to the same thing and $30.00 for the improvements he did report does not appeal to me.
Now CCleaner, at no cost with several very quick positive comments here, that's something I'll look into.
Thanks to all for your comments and advice.
