Help?
Paul Keith:
Yep, Registry Cleaners definitely don't help much for viruses. Your friend could be a case of a casual user being recommended a software and him/her recommending it to you.
For example when my mom got hit with a virus, I recommended her to several well known applications like Dr. Web Cureit!, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, Super-AntiSpyware and Avira and she instead listened to a co-worker who used Noob Killer and I was like "Huh? What's that?" but it did fix her PC problems (or so she claims) and I checked the application and it looks to be a registry hotfixer specifically designed for malware that infects the registry. Haven't really used it as a main cleaner on it's own but judging by the sites Google gives me, it has very few if no negative reviews that I have read.
