"over cluttered registry..."

Ever thought once u used the unistall program to get rid of program is enuff?
No it isnt it clutters on your registry and takes up 'system resources'.
I deleted some programs off my registry viola at starup 90% sysytem resources instead of a measly 83 :D

what is that

Why would you want to prevent the Shutdown option from appearing on the Start Menu?

If you did, it'd be much easier to use poledit...

Speaking of the registry, try this trick:

Start > Run > regedit

HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer

Right click in the right part. New > String value. Rename it NoClose, right click that and modify. Enter 1.

:D

Sorry, should have said that its freeware available from the M$ site...

Microsoft RegClean works for me

I'll just download a program that can clean it for me...

There must be something out there!

Spyware was a bit of a problem for me, kept crashing my computer but got rid of it all now!

If you're not experienced with the registry, read a guide or something, and make sure you back it up first - you can destroy your whole computer using the registry....very easily....
