Comment: I was doing a regedit today and noticed hundreds of registry entries for what looks like every web page I've ever visited (and some I don't remember visiting). I can delete them 1 by 1 but it would take forever. Is there a faster way of getting rid of them?

Reply: Are they all in the same key? If so, just hold down your shift key to select them and then delete. Personally, I wouldn't worry about it..I'd just leave them there.

Reply: do a google on crap cleaner (totally serious) it'll get rid of the entries you don't need, as well as many temp files most users don't even pay attention to.....

Reply: use regscrubxp and it will find and fix the old entries. Don't be surprised as to find hundreds of them. It is safe to use and I have never had to replace any removed entries that the program fixed. regscrubXP download here IN THE MATTERS OF STYLE, swim with the current; in matters of principle, STAND LIKE A ROCK
