How laughable! Let's make sure we all get this right:

Everybody, but you, (of course), is wrong.

Everybody, but you, spreads misinformation.

Everybody, but you, is closed mind.

And nobody, but you, has any experience in their background to make
informed decisions on the usefulness of registry cleaners.

You speak of "volumes of evidence and experiences to the contrary" but
other than spam and commercial advertising material you have never been
able to provide any unbiased independent research to back your opinions.
Where is this "volume of evidence"? The overwhelming volume of
evidence provided by most of the independent experts is that cleaning
the registry does absolutely nothing to improve performance, why should
we believe you instead of all the others who disagree with you? What
makes you think that you are the only one here who is qualified to
deliver a verdict on these registry cleaners?

I read many of your posts in these groups and you often imply that you
have an open mind, and a good thing that you have or else your head
would explode, your rear end is shut so tight that it all backs up to
your mind and then it comes out of your ears sideways!

Very unfortunate you have tunnel vision. All your posts indicate that. Very
narrow indeed.

Re: Deleting a Registry Entry
Can't you read and UNDERSTAND? It was asked, mentioned using your word, to
determine if you think you're impressing someone. Are you?

Re: Deleting a Registry Entry
I can't believe you're so dense that you don't understand advertising. That
link is an enticement for you to eventually
purchase OneCare at a cost of about $50.00. You probably believe Microsoft
developed that registry cleaner.
If you do, you're dumber than I thought.
