...is it worth $29.95? Anyone use it? Supposedly it's good for
amateurs like me.

I would never use it. When I get clogged up I do a format and rebuild.
Over the years I have probably averaged twice a year.

As infinitely painful as it is.... this is the best advice.

If you're a simple user like The Freak, I might agree. For those who
have lots of applications they use and would have to reinstall, it's a
bloody waste of time.

Registry Mechanic does a decent job. Vista and Win 7 both do a good
job of keeping the disc defragged.

Two of the aspects of Windozes I don't miss:

the registry
the need to defrag hard drives

There is no registry in the Apple OS, and it is pretty simple to remove
a program and all its pieces and parts. Also, the OS seems to keep the
drive(s) pretty much defragged on its own.

Backups and restores are much easier, too.

But I still like Windoze.

That's where I was headed with this.... defragging is a fragging waste
of time.... better spend wiping and re-installing.

Yeah, we run lots of software packages and OS here but I can usually do
a tear down and rebuild in one evening. The key is to have everything
ready in advance. A good plan goes a long way. Even for those German
screwdriver applications the "elite" users here install.snerk

There's room in that kitchen for motorcycles *and* lots of software
packages?

HD Floppies take hardly any space at all.

Some months ago, justhate was having difficulties setting up mozilla
thunderbird. I may not have this part right, but I think loogie was
trying to help him. If you can't figure out how to set up thunderbird,
you sure as hell cannot run an ISP, as justhate claims to do. If you
have to depend upon justhate or loogie for technical help, you might as
well trade in your computer for an abacus.

Snotty runs an ISP?

That's an acronym for what, Illegitimate Spankers and Pussies?
Inebriated Stool Patrol? Insanely Stupid Putzes?

He could probably head up the local Klan chapter meeting if Herring
was busy working on race for a cure.

Well, he *claims* to run an ISP. I think his wife has a low-level
netware kind of certificate, and she might be behind the ISP if there is
one.
