Looking for ez newb tool for register

Hi all,

Up until now I have dealt with a lot of things security-wise, but the one thing I stayed away from -for a good reason, being not an expert I think- is the registry.

I'd like to take the first steps here as well.
And I'm looking for an easy to grasp (newb friendly) tool to monitor/adjust/protect my registry(entries).
Where to start?

Any suggestions?
Or, in case this thread already exists in any form; where can I find that one?
Thanks in advance

regards,
slammer

Hey Slammer,

if your looking for a good registry cleaner, here's one,

http://www.hoverdesk.net/freeware.htm

I have used Regseeker for about a year now with no problems.Has a lot of options, and it is very newbie friendly.

As with all registry tools, don't forget to check the backup option before performing any actions.

Hope this helps.

Hi Slammer,

Snowbound is right on with Regseeker by Hoverdesk ... great interface, simple and newbie friendly.

Other suggestions for cleaners - 1. jv16 powertools (A++++) & Reg Cleaner (A-) by Jouni Vuorio from Macecraft - (this link has them both ... both still work, no time bomb (like the last freeware version) these still work.)
jv16 powertools & regcleaner

For a Reg Protection - DiamondCS Reg Prot - similar to Spybot's built in protection they can both operate no conflict.
