First, registry cleaners are not needed. They are absolutely useless. A vital entry missing in your registry can make Windows not boot, but loads of useless, irrelevant stuff won't phase it one bit. If you think cleaning the registry speeds things up, you are observing the effect of a placebo in software form!! Second, and most important, If Uniblue's offerings were merely ineffective and free, they would be faces in the crowd. However, both the software and the vendor's marketing methods scream "THIS SOFTWARE IS ITSELF A VIRUS, AND IT IS MARKETED BY CRIMINALS." The proof that the software is bogus is in several posts above in this thread. When you install it on a fresh install of Windows, it "finds" hundreds of viruses. Since Microsoft does not ship infected products, the scare scam is revealed. If you try to get your money back, it is a crap shoot. (pun intended, sorry, I could not resist) They just refund money to enough customers to get positive comments on blogs and confuse everyone. The majority are subjected to a variety of flim-flams which look like errors, but are carefully crafted to deny refunds. The only good news is that computer techs, such as myself, can usually get rid of the Uniblue slime, if either "Add/Remove Programs" (XP), or "Programs and Features" (Vista, 7) in Control Panel can't, or in extreme cases if System Restore can't. So far I have not seen a Windows install destroyed by Uniblue. I have seen destruction caused by customers' attempts to remove it, so be careful if you try this. If the simple methods referred to in this post do not work, search for more methods, or call one of us insufferable geeks to help you!

Hi Linda Peel,
RegistryBooster keeps the Windows registry in order by removing invalid entries or shortcuts that no longer exist after certain operations such as after un-installing a program. By time these invalid entries increase and the more one uses the PC the more the registry grows in size. This can affect the speed at which the registry is traversed by the applications or the operating system itself to find the needed entries.
Regarding your comment that RegistryBooster finds viruses on a fresh install of Windows, please note that none of our products scan for viruses or other malicious software at all, so it's unclear what is backing up your claim that RegistryBooster finds hundreds of viruses.
Also kindly note that we offer a no-questions-asked refund policy for a 60-day time window from the purchase date, which gives our customers plenty of time to evaluate our software.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Kind regards
Keti, Uniblue Team

Uniblue Registry Booster is a complete scam. Yes, it is scareware and will find errors on a fresh, virgin Windows installation. Most of the time you can uninstall it from Add/Remove Programs (XP) or Programs and Features (Vista, 7) in control panel. If this does not work, use System Restore to revert your system back to a date before you installed this junk. If this does not work, you can take your machine to a pro, you can re-inatall Windows, or if your machine is a "branded" unit (Dell, HP, Lenovo, etc) you can probably restore it to its factory configuration. Sadly, any re-install or restore will wipe out everything on your drive, unless you know how to scavenge files onto another drive. I have killed this monster by using Winternals ERD Commander and manually deleting any files and registry entried associated with it, but this is probably beyond what ordinary users can do. JUST AVOID ANY REGISTRY CLEANERS, BOOSTERS, OR OPTIMZERS. They are useless junk even if they don't hurt anything. The same pro that can remove Uniblue can also fix the REAL problems that were slowing down your machine at the same time. If you want to throw money at your PC, call a local expert.
