    Anyone know a good registry cleaner?

    The subject pretty much says it all. I need a registry cleaner for win98. Not SE. Anyone know a good one?
    Thanks in advance.

    I use a combo of CleanSweep 98 and regclean.exe from MS. Still doesn't get everything though.

    regclean.exe is on www.microsoft.com somewheres. Try doing a search for it.

    Try to use Norton WinDoctor, regclean, Nut&Bolts and Cleansweep.

    I still do some manual cleaning on the registry... really boring, but it helps on performance and getting rid of old apps references.

    Best one I have found is WinOptimizer 99 DELUXE by PTS software.
    http://www.pts-shop.com
    www.softseek.com had a 10 use key available at one point in time.

    Don't use with multi-boot!

    I user Regclean from MS, as well as Cleanreg(another freeware prog.) Then, like Pantion, I go thru the registry manually and start picking away like a baboon picks its fleas.(Nice thought pic, huh?)

    Windows contain a registry defrag tool.
    Type "scanreg /fix" under pure dos.

    format *.* or fdisk always worked great for me...then use a bootable redhat cd.
