Registry Cleaner

I was looking for a real "free" registry cleaner, however, most of them are sharewares.

They ususally marked themself as "free to download" or "free to scan". This is really misleading.

Finally, I found one freeware registry cleaner. It's called CCleaner. This small utility class runs superisingly fast. Recommend it.

No More Real Player

Want to play a rmvb file download from BT without using Real Player 10?

Real Alternative is the answer.

Some advantages compared to RealPlayer :

- Quick and easy install
- It's easy to make an unattended installation
- Proper uninstallation
- No background processes
- Use a player of your own choice
- Low on resources
- No advertising, no registration forms, nothing annoying

Free Anti-Virus

I have tried two free anti-virus program recently. Avast! and AVG are free for home user.
I quite like the GUI/User interface of Avast. It's much metter than AVG.

However, you can't schedule any task in Avast and you have to scan it manually for its free version. I think this is a must and therefore I decided to us AVG.
