a few post of on the one I said was going to be a copy paste about the registery cleaner I for got to paste it so here it is now Sharon
Hi sharon this looks very good and clean.
Avast is a good antivirus. Keep it updated at least weekly and scan at least weekly. Do the same with Malwarebytes and SUPERAntispyware.
I do not like registry Cleaners so I will ask that you dump registry genius.
You maay have leftover entries in your registry from Norton. So i want you to run this tool. It will remove all traces of the unused AV. Download and run the Norton Removal Tool
DO NOT worry about the Product key as you are not re installing.
CCleaner
Registry Cleaners and Malware Removal
While CCleaner is safe and useful for removing temporary and junk files, we do not recommend using the built-in registry cleaner unless you have a good understanding of the registry. In fact, we don't recommend using registry cleaners in general.[/quote]
Registry cleaners are extremely powerful applications. There are a number of them available and some are more safe than others. Keep in mind that no two registry cleaners work entirely the way. Each vendor uses different criteria as to what constitutes a "bad" entry. One cleaner may find entries on your system that will not cause a problem when removed, another may not find the same entries, and still another may want to remove entries required for a program to work.
The Windows registry is a central repository (database) for storing configuration data, user settings and machine-dependent settings, and options for the operating system. It contains information and settings for all hardware, software, users, and preferences. Whenever a user makes changes to settings, file associations, system policies, or installed software, the changes are reflected and stored in this repository. The registry is a crucial component because it is where Windows "remembers" all this information, how it works together, how Windows boots the system and what files it uses when it does. The registry is also a vulnerable subsystem, in that relatively small changes done incorrectly can render the system unbootable.
The usefulness of cleaning the registry is highly overrated and can be dangerous. In most cases, using a cleaner to remove obsolete, invalid, and erroneous entries does not affect system performance but it can result in "unpredictable results". Unless you have a particular problem that requires a registry edit to correct it, I would suggest you leave the registry alone. Using registry cleaning tools unnecessarily or incorrectly could lead to disastrous effects on your operating system such as preventing it from ever starting again. For routine use, the benefits to your computer are negligible while the potential risks are great.
Further, improperly removing malware related registry entries could hamper the disinfection process. Full system scanning anti-spyware programs like SUPERAntispyware and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware will remove the registry entries as well as the related files which results in a more complete removal process. However, there also are specific fix tools created by experts which are used for removing malware and related registry entries. These types of tools are safe when used under proper supervision and guidance.
