Save 20% On Registry Mechanic & Stop Computer Crashes!

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.

ScreenshotA 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

Penguins and Star Stuff

Do you pick up a penguin by his wings or his feet
Or lure him inside by offering a treat?
Do you tease him and taunt him and spin him around
Or do you set him a'sailing and run him aground?

Do you pickle his feathers in olives and oil
Or cook him on stove top at medium boil?
Or do you just look and wish you could be
A penguin like Lester or a poet like me?

Do you see his tuxedo and laugh in his face
Or spray him with paint and his beauty disgrace?
Do you want a pet penguin to keep in your house
Or do you hate penguins? Are you that sort of louse?

First I want to tell you how much I love Gmail. I got a Gmail account about 18 months ago because your recommended it. And I love its features and how easy it is to use. But, you didn't warn us that when you set it up in your email program you spend hours downloading email the first time you use it. What's up with that? Thanks, Peggy

This Week's Top Tips and Tricks

How To Always Reply In HTML Format
Windows XP and Windows Vista - Outlook Express and Windows Mail

The default setting for Outlook Express and Windows Mail is to reply in the same format as the email to which you're replying. What this means is that if you leave your mail program set that way, if someone sends you a plain text email, you're going to reply to that email in plain text even if your mail program is set to compose in HTML formatted email. The reasoning behind this is fairly simple to understand. Here's why: If someone is using a plain text email program and you reply in HTML formatted email, they will see your response like this....

Unraveling the mysteries of memory
All operating systems

We all know how important our memory is. If we forget something it's liable to have ramifications. If we forget to buy milk or bread or pretzels it usually means an inconvenient run to some convenience store at 11:30PM to get whatever we forgot at the grocery store and paying a premium price.

Well computers have memory too. Computer have different types of memory. I guess you could say people do too  (good and bad memory?). Oops I'm meandering again. Computer memory comes in two basic flavors: Physical and virtual...
