Thread: Registry cleaner

  1. #1

    Lightbulb Registry cleaner

    Hi there
    I am currently having problem with my laptop its so slow I tried cleaning the registry but these registry software's want me to register for a certain price so they can clean my laptop,from your experience is it necessary to pay something like R257 for registry cleaner? Is there alternative to get my laptop back to running fast without paying such an amount? I tried removing the trojan using on-line scans from various antiviruses but they can't detect it only clean my registry (Microsoft partner) can detect it but they selling full version for R257! Need advice,what are my options? I use kaspersky antivirus and internet security.

    I use glary tools alot.

    For trojans, use a good anti-virus.
    If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun.

    The only one I trust is the one that comes with CCleaner. Others have royally messed up my laptop.

    @ OP ... You're a little confused ... registry cleaners are not virus removers

    If you just want to clean the registry of obsolete entries, then Ccleaner (free) is your best option. ... but it sounds like you're having virus issues, so try something like malwarebytes

    ooooo, i think i see what the problem is, your computer has been infected with spyware and its requesting you to buy the program for R250??
    In that case, install something like Malwarebytes or Spybot - Search & Destroy.
