Like many computer users, "registry" repair is an absolutely confusing to me. It always has been, and it probably always will. After I began using Fix-It Utilities 9, though, that's no longer a problem. The Windows registry is a massive conglomeration of lines and lines of code. If you're not a professional computer programmer, it's all but impossible to try to keep an eye on what's going on in there. With all the malicious software that's going around nowadays, this is a big problem, as many of those unwanted programs root themselves deep into the registry. This means trying to delete the virus or adware program is futile, since it will spring right back from the entries buried in the registry. I've installed this on my PC as well as my wife's, and we're no longer plagued by those awful programs. Fix-it Utilities 9 also comes with a spyware remover program and a virus scanner, which are very easy to use. Just click to scan, and they take care of the rest. Overall I'm very very pleased with this software and I recommend it to anyone with a PC, especially if you have any virus or adware problems.
