			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If your computer uses a Windows operating system it is useful to use registry cleaners periodically. This will ensure you obtain the best performance from your system that is possible. If you don&#8217;t clean the registry it will become overloaded with obsolete and corrupt entries. This will cause it to slow down noticeably.</p>
<p>A database, that Windows calls its registry, tracks all the changes made to computer settings and programs. It uses this registry when starting up and when you access programs. The more changes that are made, the larger the database becomes. And, the larger the database is, the longer it takes for Windows to find what it is looking for.</p>
<p>When you delete programs the associated registry entries should also be deleted however this does not always happen completely. Sometimes individual entries are left that are no longer associated with any program. They do nothing except take up space.</p>
<p>Malware and spyware use the registry too. It is from here they launch attacks on a computer. You can pick up these malicious programs when surfing the net without even realizing it. And, they won&#8217;t show up in your add or remove programs option either.</p>
<p>There is no good reason not to keep your registry clean. Obsolete and malicious entries do nothing constructive and reduce the speed at which a computer operates.</p>
<p>Computer programs are available that scan and check the registry of Windows operating systems for entries that are not associated with installed programs. These cleaners will present you with information about obsolete and orphan entries and give you the opportunity to delete or retain them.</p>
<p>Not many general computer users have the skills to clean the Windows operating system registry manually. And, even those who do would usually not take this path when a computer program can do it in a fraction of the time.</p>
<p>When the operating system registry is not cleaned there is a risk that incompatible or malicious entries will cause the computer to crash. Or, it may hang in the start up process. If this happens and you need to get a technician to fix it you could find it a very expensive exercise.</p>
<p>Regularly running registry cleaners can protect you from poor computer performance. Before you go out and buy upgrades, or call a technician to find the problem, run a cleaner. It is likely this will improve your computer&#8217;s functioning substantially.</p>

If you not exactly sure what a registry cleaner is, it's a database that is used to store all of your computers configurations for the operating system and the programs that you use.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you noticed the big hype that&#8217;s been going on with people trying to get their hands on the absolute best registry cleaners? Well I&#8217;ll let you in on a little secret &#8211; if your looking to make your computer faster then using a registry cleaner will give you very little, if any, noticeable results. If you not exactly sure what a registry cleaner is, it&#8217;s a database that is used to store all of your computers configurations for the operating system and the programs that you use. When you make a change to a program, the registry that corresponds with that program/application will either change or add a new registry. If there are redundant registries or registries that are not being used then the computer will run inefficiently and this is where a registry cleaner will come in.</p>
<p>So what exactly does a registry cleaner do that is so important? All it really does is it will remove the unwanted, redundant and broken registries that really are not helping your computer out. They are just sitting there and are taking up space for no real reason at all. The overall idea that registry cleaners follow is htat if you remove these useless registries your computer will run faster. This will happen. But the real question is how much of a difference will it make?</p>
<p>See what most people don&#8217;t know is that cleaning up your registry will not make your computer super fast. What will happen is that your computer will become a tiny bit faster &#8211; so tiny that you most likely will not even notice a difference. If you are lucky you might save a few seconds here and there, but don&#8217;t buy into the hype that is going on. What the registry companies and computer geeks don&#8217;t tell you is that using a registry cleaner to clean up your computer only cleans up small portions of your computer.</p>
<p>Making your computer faster requires that you spend some working on different parts of your computer to make it more efficient like tweaking the operating system and cleaning out parts of the computer. Using a registry cleaner is like having a messy desk to clean and you are focusing on cleaning out one drawer. Sure that one drawer will be really neat and organized but the overall picture (the desk in this case) will still be messy and inefficient to use.</p>
<p>Should you stop using registry clearers? No. The registry is one of the areas of your computer that needs to be cleaned and you should still use a registry cleaner to clean it out. I just don&#8217;t suggest paying for a registry cleaner since there are some really good free ones out there. The main one that I use and highly recommend is called Ccleaner. If you are interested in it, just do a Google search for it. Just download the program and install it. Once installed, on the left hand side click on Registry and click on Scan for issues. It will now scan your computer to see where the errors are and then you will be able to remove the errors that are on your registry. Also Ccleaner doubles as a great general all purpose cleaner for your computer. Just click on Run Cleaner on the home screen and it will clean out your temporary internet files, cookies, your history and other pieces of data that are not needed anymore.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Registry Cleaners are a software product that is designed to clear up problems on the database (registry) of computers using the Microsoft Windows operating system. When something appears wrong with the machine, it is often because something needs to be removed from this database. That is what these cleaners do.</p>
<p>With the huge amount of information a computer holds it follows that it can incur problems if not cleaned regularly. There are a number of things that can cause these problems. They could include broken links, missing references, invalid entries and a number of other things.</p>
<p>Working at top speed on an important work assignment and having the computer suddenly freeze up or stop working altogether can be a horrifying experience. Especially if there is a deadline to meet and everyone is waiting for the work to be completed. At this point, something must be done to get the machine operating again.</p>
<p>Fortunately, there is now software available to clear up many of the problems that can occur with the computer&#8217;s registry. This software is specifically designed to examine all parts of the database and remove any broken links, previous software remains and other things that should not be there. When using this type of cleaner one should carefully read and follow the directions on the package.</p>
<p>Choosing the correct cleaner for one&#8217;s registry can be difficult. It is important to have the unwanted items removed but, at the same time, one does not want to lose something that is valuable. Having a cleaner that makes a backup of the removed items is very important. With this backup, anything that was removed can be restored.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, purchasing a computer does not make one an instant expert in the field. Usually when a machine breaks down one will call a computer technician. This expert will, in many cases, repair the machine with the registry cleaner software.</p>
<p>Anyone who has examined the inside of a computer realizes how complex the entire machine is, but especially the database. Trying to clean the various components of this apparatus without the proper software would not only be impractical but could damage it beyond repair. In addition, using the correct software will relieve one&#8217;s mind regarding future problems.</p>
<p>Due to the amount of information one puts in their computer, especially in large businesses, it is essential that it not be lost. Replacing lost material can take many hours and, in some cases be impossible to put back together. Sometimes an expert in the field can recover such data, but not always, and it is very expensive. Registry cleaners are constructed to prevent this kind of a mishap.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you use the internet on a regular basis then you should be aware of some of the harmful things out there that can harm your computer. There are many different harmful things like malware and spyware but for the purposes of this article were going to discuss viruses and how you should protect yourself against them. A virus is basically a malicious piece of software that has been created with the sole intention of harming a computer.</p>
<p>These pieces of software usually find their way onto your computer by just pretending to be another piece of software so that you will download it and install it. Once they are on your computer they will do their evil tasks and they will also run in the background. Both of these are one of the biggest causes of a slow computer. When these programs are running in the background of your computer they are using up your computers resources (like CPU usage and memory) and this leaves less computing power for you to use.</p>
<p>So, what&#8217;s the best way to stop a virus? Well the obvious answer to this would be to simply not go on the internet &#8211; but as we all that just isn&#8217;t possible. The alternative is to use an anti-virus program but this also opens another can of worms &#8211; which anti-virus programs out there will actually protect your computer without wasting money and not slowing down your computer? Luckily for you, I have used many different anti-virus programs over the course of a few years and I have my top two to recommend to you so you don&#8217;t have to waste your time or money (like I did) to figure them out.</p>
<p>The main program that I use for my anti-virus is called AVG Anti-Virus. Now to start off I&#8217;m going to warn you that there is a free version and a paid version of the software. If you are short on cash don&#8217;t worry to much &#8211; the free verion work just fine and it was the main one that I used for a long time. That being said, obviously the paid version of this software just has a few more fany features on, but you dont really have to have them. If you do decided to use AVG, you are going to need to tune it to make your computer faster (it will natrually make your computer slower). There are many ways to configure AVG to do this, but for the purpose of this article we are going to focus on the biggest one: preventing AVG from performing a scan as soon as you turn on your computer. What this means is that you are going to have to manually tell it to perform scan when it is convenient for you. To do this just click on &#8220;Computer Scanner&#8221;, select &#8220;Manage Scheduled Scans&#8221;, select &#8220;Edit Scan Schedule&#8221; and uncheck the box that says &#8220;Enable this task&#8221;. T34sh just click on save.</p>
<p>The other anti-virus program that I recommend is called ESET Nod 32 Anti-Virus. Now there is only a paid version of this but that being said you do get a lot of protection, it is not annoying to use and you do not have to configure it at all. This is probably the best anti-virus that I have ever tired and I highly recommend it to anyone.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Why should you be worried about spyware? That's actually a really good question. See, spyware is a form of malware that is used to log information on someone without them knowing. Some of the most common things that are logged are things like usernames, passwords, credit card information and even bank account information. Malware is software that is also installed on a users computer without them knowing but is designed to damage your computer (this is why the mal in malware stands for malicious). Since spyware is a piece of software that runs in the background of your computer, it will take up your computers resources and this leads to it slowing down your computer.]]></description>

See, spyware is a form of malware that is used to log information on someone without them knowing. Some of the most common things that are logged are things like usernames, passwords, credit card information and even bank account information. Malware is software that is also installed on a users computer without them knowing but is designed to damage your computer (this is why the mal in malware stands for malicious). Since spyware is a piece of software that runs in the background of your computer, it will take up your computers resources and this leads to it slowing down your computer.</p>
<p>Since spyware is a piece of software that runs in the background of your computer without you even knowing about it, it eats up your computers resources and this will slow down your computer in time. I personally use two different pieces of software to prevent spyware from harming my computer. One is used to prevent spyware from ever getting into my computer, kind of like a guard and the other is used to scan and remove all spyware that managed to get passed the guard.</p>
<p>The main program that I use is called MalwareBytes Anti Malware and is a completely free program. Just install it on your computer and then just do a full scan on your hard drive &#8211; it will then scan your entire hard drive for MalWare. I couldn&#8217;t recommend this anymore since what it does is it will look at every single file on your computer to make sure that it is not infected with MalWare or Spyware of some sort. Now, once a full scan is complete and you plan on doing another scan in the future just run a quick scan as it should do the trick. Unfortunately there is a downside to using the free version of this software- you have to manually update it by clicking on the update button (look at the bright side, at least it&#8217;s free)</p>
<p>The other piece of software that I use is called Spyware Blaster and it&#8217;s main purpose is to protect my computer by preventing malware and spyware from getting into my computers hard drive. I want you to notice the difference: one program that I use is used to scan and eliminate malware/spyware and the other tries to prevent it from ever coming in like a guard. All you have to do s to just download and install the program and it will automatically provide you with full protection. This is also another program that you are going to have to manually update.</p>
<p>What most people don&#8217;t know that is that if your computer is infected with spyware it can drastically slow down your computer. This is why it is critical that you take care of your computers health as much as possible.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Malware is basically any piece of software that enters into your computer without you knowing with the intention of harming your computer. Spyware on the other hand is software that is used to collect personal information on you like your passwords, username and credit card numbers. This is why protecting yourself against both is a very important task that should not be overlooked, but for the purposes of this article were going to focus more on talking about how to protect yourself from malware.</p>
<p>A lot of computers tend to have malware running on them without the users even knowing about it, and to make matters worse, they are one of the biggest reasons as to why your computer is running slowly. This is why it is critical that you have some form of software that will not only protect your computer when malware tries to enter into your computer, but it also has to be able to detect that there is malware on your computer and remove it. I personally use two different pieces of software, one to stop malware from getting into the computer and another to scan and remove malware once it has found its way onto my computer.</p>
<p>The very first program that I tend to use is called Malware Bytes Anti-Malware. This program I use to scan my entire computer of any malware infections on the computer and it will then remove the infected files for you. All you have to do is to just download the program, click on the &#8220;perform a full scan&#8221; and it will look through all of the files on your hard drive to see if they are malware or malware related. After you have done that, if you want to do another scan in the future, a simply quick scan should do the trick.</p>
<p>To protect my computer I use a program called Spyware Blaster. This is a program that is used to protect your computer by trying to stop programs from getting their way into your computer. Just download and install the program and it will provide you with full protection. You should make sure to click on the &#8220;Protection Status&#8221; button and select Enable All Protection (its at the bottom). There is however, one downside to using the free version of this software &#8211; you have to manually go in and update it. Just click on the Updates button and select Check for Updates.</p>
<p>If you were to run a scan of your computer when you first download Malware Bytes Anti-Malware its very typical of you to get about 250 or maybe even more infections (assuming you have used your computer for a few months or longer without running a scan for malware). This is why it is critical that you perform maintenance on your computer at regular intervals.</p>
