If you received an unsolicited email about it aka Spam, I wouldn't trust it. If you want software to mess around with your files and registry, go to download.com and at least read reviews.

Best and safest way to fix the registry AND get rid of spyware is to go here\n\nhttp://safety.live.com/site/en-US/default.htm\n\nand do the full service scan. it's from microsoft and it works beautifully.\n\ntweaking the registry is pretty tricky. So be very very carareful. If I were you I wouldn't touch it except with the microsoft online scanning tool above.\n\nYou'll be amazed how muxh stuff it finds and fixes! It looks for and fixes: viruses, spy/adware, invalid registry entries, temp files, does a port scan and lots more!

Just as u would install any other software. But even with registry repair softwares u will need some knowledge of computers, ur programs etc to identify if the selected items r the right ones to clean & vice versa.

I'm not an expert or anything but I had this problem too and I did a search for a registry cleaner - ended up using PC Doc pro - a free 30 day trial.  sorted it out and more.  check it out  - no promises though.\nAnother tip -  I read a lot of these questions and answers, which made me think about my registry,  there's nearly always someone posting the same problem - gives you some idea what to go for if that cheers you up any.   good luck!

Select Start then Run and use the Regedit or regedt32 you can view all of the KEYS as well they are some programs that lock the Registry down (bad Idea) as many programs are always hiding some goodies
