Save 20% On Registry Mechanic
We've received more unsolicited reader testimonials for
Registry Mechanic than we have for any other Cloudeight-recommended
and endorsed program. Each week we receive dozens of reader comments
about the big difference in computer performance Registry Mechanic has
made. These unsolicited comments come from readers just like you who
relate their own experiences with Registry Mechanic to us. It's easy to
see why so many people have written - Registry Mechanic makes computers
run better and can save you a lot of money helping you avoid expensive
repair bills!
Here
are a just two of the many comments we received this week about Registry
Mechanic.
 A
Comment From Judith
I kept reading positive comments about
Registry Mechanic in your InfoAve Premium Newsletter so I finally
bought it for my year old laptop. That was about six weeks ago, I've had
no problems with it and last week I bought another subscription of it
for my 3 year old PC. It found/repaired 908 problems. Registry Mechanic
is one tool I would recommend for sure. I use IE 7. Judith - happy
computer user.
A Comment From Jim R.
"...before I knew about
Registry Mechanic, I downloaded a different registry cleaner. In the
scan it found almost 1000 errors. When I got Registry Mechanic, it found
600 errors. I have often wondered about the difference. Then I got your
wonderful 3rd e-book. You speak often of registry cleaners that cause
problems. I believe that I was saved from a problem by going with
Registry Mechanic. You two are the greatest! Take Care, Jim R..."
Registry Mechanic uses a
high-performance detection algorithm to quickly identify missing and
invalid references in your Windows registry. These problems can occur
for many reasons including being left-behind after the un-installation
or incorrect removal of software, by missing or corrupt hardware
drivers, or orphaned startup programs.

This Week's
Rant
Just A Moment
When we say "just a moment" do we ever consider what a moment really is?
We say "just a moment" without thinking of what moments mean in our
lives. Does a moment reflect a certain amount of time? Does a moment in
time mean something different to each one of us?
Is a moment a measurement of time - or it something else?
Can a moment really be measured as time at all? Or are moments more like
fragile and intangible milestones of our lives?
Our lives can change in just a moment. A child is born in a moment and
we all will die in a moment. Great ideas flash in the minds of ordinary
people in a moment, yet those those ideas born in a moment can change
the world forever.
A dictator seizes power and enslaves an entire civilization changing
millions of lives in just a moment. We can go from freedom to slavery in
just a moment.

Top Questions and Answers
Danny is wants to know
how to get the beeps
My friend's computer has Num Lock and Caps Lock keys that
beep to alert him when they are pressed - but mine don't make any
sound. How can I be alerted with a sound so that I know if I
accidentally hit these keys? I really enjoy your trivia game on your
start page. I play it everyday! Thanks, Danny.

Top Tips and Tricks
Tabbed Browsing
Shortcuts - Internet Explorer 7
Windows XP and Windows Vista - Internet Explorer 7
Lots of you loved tabbed
browsing. EB thinks it's the best thing since sliced bread. TC has been
using Firefox for a long time so he's used to tabbed browsing - since
Firefox was the first to have it. But, EB wouldn't listen - but then
finally Microsoft came around and put tabs in Internet Explorer.
Working with tabs when
browsing can be made a lot easier if you know some handy-dandy keyboard
shortcuts. Since tabbed browsing in Internet Explorer hasn't been around
that long, we are guessing that not too many of you know these
shortcuts.
And, do not dismay my
Firefox sisters and brothers, many of these shortcuts work perfectly in
Firefox too! Try them and see .
Visit this page for some cool IE tabbed-browsing
shortcuts.

Using
Windows Task Manager To Bail Out
Of Programs That Won't Stop
Running
Windows XP and Windows Vista
(all versions)
We've received countless letters
from readers who have asked us
how to shut down programs that
are running but are not
displaying an icon in the system
tray or task bar. You may
encounter this when trying to
update an installed program or
uninstalling a program that is
running in the background. If
you don't see an icon in the
task bar or system tray for a
program you want to shut down or
if a program says you cannot
uninstall it because the program
is running and you cannot find a
way to shut it down, this tip is
for you!
Open Windows Task Manager by
pressing the CTRL + ALT + DELETE
keys in sequence. Once Task
Manager opens, click on the
"Processes" tab at the top. Find
the program you want to shut
down in the list of running
processes and right-click it.
Select "End Process" from the
menu which appears. A warning
dialog will appear, click "YES"
to shut down the program you
selected. The program will be
shut down immediately and you
can proceed with the update or
the uninstall without further
problems.
