Your PC is Just a Click Away from Running Like New

You've run your security software, zapped myriad viruses, adware and spyware, yet your computer is still slow. It could be because your maintenance tasks aren't done until you clean your PC's registry.

What's the registry, you ask? In Windows, it's a virtual directory that stores settings and options for the PC's entire operating system, from hardware to software, users and preferences. Every time you change something in your computer's control panel settings, install or remove programs, create or remove a shortcut, you're changing the PC's registry - and errors can naturally occur.

Over time, these errors can slow down your computer's performance, even if you're diligent about other maintenance items, like regularly running security software. Ultimately, severe errors may even crash your PC.

Cleaning your registry "by hand" - going into each area tracked by the registry and correcting errors - just isn't practical. Your registry tracks dozens of categories and thousands of pieces of information. Instead, opt for registry cleaning software, like Advanced Registry Optimizer 5 (ARO 5), that can quickly and easily "clean" your registry with a single mouse click - leaving your PC running its best.

With a single click, ARO 5 deep scans 12 broad categories where registry errors commonly occur, including user software settings, system software settings, fonts section, invalid file associations, run sections, sound and applets, uninstall section, help section, virtual device drivers and services, and application paths section. The software includes backup and undo functions so you can preserve a snapshot of your PC before each cleaning or even revert to the settings that were active before your last cleaning.

Manufacturer Sammsoft offers free trials of ARO 5 so you can check your system for errors. Go to www.Sammsoft.com to download your free trial. Once the download is complete, just click "run" to install ARO 5. The program will scan and diagnose your PC's registry, tell you how many errors it found and then fix the first 20 errors for free. If you like the trial version, you can upgrade to the full unlimited commercial system for just $29.95.

Industry watcher Softarea51 recently gave the software 5 stars, calling it "a remarkable product, best of breed in its class, rising above its competitors by its innovative approach."
