    By and large, yes. Norton Utilities is fairly good too.

    Why do you need a registry cleaner?

    Use Window Washer or something similar - multimedia files are unlikely to be registered by Windows except in the documents / Internet history. It's normally only applications that are installed that are found in the registry, I think.

    Window Washer will clear out your temporary Internet files and your Internet page history and, I think, there's an option to completely wipe free hard drive space (as opposed to just "deleting" the file).

    Regular housekeeping like running Scan Disk and Defragmenter as well as registry / Window cleaners will make your PC run quicker and reduce a lot of error messages...

    If it's just the wife try the following:

    Go to Control Panel -> Internet Options and click "Clear History" - it'll stop 'em appearing in the address bar when you type a partial address.

    Going to Start -> Settings -> Taskbar & Start Menu, then clicking "Start Menu", "Customize" and then "Clear" will delete any files from your documents history.

    Also, if you delete the contents of:

    C:\Documents and Settings\your Windows user name\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

    That's all the web-sites, pictures and such like that you've downloaded (also your cookies, I think, so make sure you have your passwords for sites like the BBS).
