Comments on: Featured Freeware: Glary Utilities

Clean design and a wealth of effective tools that cost you not even a penny are two reasons to give Glary Utilities a shot.

RegVac or jv16 Power Tools does the job way better. And you always end up needing CCleaner or something similar to really clean up your computer, even if your utility suit claims it does the job. Here's my take on misc security tools: http://techqi.blogspot.com/2008/01/miscellaneous-security-software-part-1.html

Ran Glary, RegVac and jv16 on same virtual drive. No great difference. With AntiVir, Spyware Terminator and Advanced Windows Care all keeping the peace, seems the first three were six of one, half dozen of the other. Did have to adjust for 64 bit system, but wasn't difficult. Glary Utilities not as poor as tashfeen_m seems to think.

@aitchondo: Just (re)tried it: Tracks Eraser Pro found 11 registry entries and 16 files, *after* Glary was done cleaning. Plus, only the 1-Click Maintenance seems to work -- perhaps the pro version is different, but these days even lots of free registry cleaners offer more options than that (esp. log files and rollbacks come to mind).

I use CCleaner, but reading CNET's description, and some reviews on other sites, makes me want to download this program. Although, I need to know something. It says there that it wipes out Internet Explorer traces. That's good and all, but Mozilla Firefox has been my main browser for almost two years now. Does it do the same for Firefox?
